From The Telegraph
The Government has confirmed that bird flu is “likely” to reach UK shores
No shit !
The Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (Defra) said that consultation with experts had confirmed that the development [of an infected bird in France] - the closest reported case of bird flu to the UK - increased the chances of the disease arriving in Britain.
It’s sweeping around the damn globe. It’s spreading across the World. What did they think ? That the germs would look over and not bother with this tiny island ?
Dear Your Tonyness,
Can I please be an expert too ?
I’d like a salary far in excess of my intellectual abilities and experience just like those idiots you keep talking to.
Thanks everso,
Mark

I can’t make up my mind if bird flu is a serious worry for us or not. This is compounded by the sensationalism of the media. I heard on the radio here this morning “bird flu which has killed 90 people……since 2003″. Now that doesn’t seem like an awful lot of people in over 2 years.

I sometimes wonder if these ‘experts’ actually think at all about what they are going to say - or do they just think we’re all stupid?
