Title: The next big thing Post by: Opmod on October 17, 2007, 06:36:47 AM http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2007/10/16/AR2007101601392.html?hpid=moreheadlines (http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2007/10/16/AR2007101601392.html?hpid=moreheadlines)
Quote A dangerous germ that has been spreading around the country causes more life-threatening infections than public health authorities had thought and is killing more people in the United States each year than the AIDS virus, federal health officials reported yesterday. The microbe, a strain of a once innocuous staph bacterium that has become invulnerable to first-line antibiotics, is responsible for more than 94,000 serious infections and nearly 19,000 deaths each year, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention calculated. Nevermind Avian Bird flu Or dependence on antibitics is going to kill us. Sometimes alittle illness is not a bad thing.

We thwack-off a piece of someones anatomy everyday because of infection. Title: Re: The next big thing Post by: chovy on October 24, 2007, 01:11:18 AM Who said anything about laughter?

This issue won't fly. It's too serious. ;D
