    exactly. Back then they didn't have the medical knowledge and took them far longer, with modern stuff and that 5 years is more than they need.

    cuba took far longer to create the men c vaccine, HIV has taken the past 20 years, the common cold is still being looked for, it's not quick and it's not easy.

    It depends on quantity of researchers and the disease itself.

    They've yet to ever find a cure for any flu virus. Ever. They have vaccines that give you a better fighting chance, and at our current rates, we could probably produce enough to insulate 1/10th of the western world. Most of that in europe, because they have a better responce structure to this stuff. America'd be lucky to get any bettter than a 5% innoculation rate. And that would be only if they already had a functioning vaccine and all they needed to do was produce it. Since they've been working on Spanish Influenza vaccines for the last 20 years (and still don't have one)- I don't exactly have faith in the system.

    the actual virus could be in britain for christmas. migrating birds will carry it. spring could be a pretty bad time too. but we are almost certainly screwed here.

    I got over the bird flu jitters, and now I think you guys are just being a little paranoid. Just stay away from birds and anyone who looks like they have bird flu.

    yeah cos you can spot them a mile off. first time they catch it they turn green. if we could see in green back in 1918 we would have been fine. but everything was in black and white then.

    keep your hygeine up, stay away from wild birds and avoid people you don't know. Thats what Rengori tried to say.

    Only until the virus mutates to the point where it's readily communicable from human-to-human. That is what's got everyone worried.
