avian flu

Seriously, i don't know what the big hub is about! Everybody going made about this virus and the eventual human fatalities. America goes berserk as usual, headed by chief red indian Bush, blowing is antiviral clarion, leading the worldwide collection of chemical weaponry... the media going hoiti- toiti on single cases in birds and every dead bird gets dissected as if they are expecting any second to find it turned into a zombie. Hey! Where do we life? What do we fear? The real lifethreats are surely sitting somewhere else and not in a peaceful dove leaving her equally peaceful excrements in front of our doorstep. 3m homeless people will die in Kashmir's winter in the course of the next weeks if the rest of the world doesn't take money fast from its respective pockets. That's a life threat, so much for sure, but not for the cushy western world, so why should we care??
