well the UK now has the deadly strain of H5N1 virus

The Restriction Zone, in which poultry must be kept isolated from wild birds and movements must be licensed, now covers 806 square miles of east Suffolk and south east Norfolk. Government officials are keen to reassure the public there is no need to panic, as the risk to humans is "negligible" although 164 people have died from it in Asia and the Middle East.

Or it could escalate like foot and mouth did, and destroy our farming industry and cripple the economy. Either way some bumbling idiot from suffolk is bound to spread it across the country with some livestock.

All it takes is one prat who doesn't have an ounce of common sense in him.

In the States the Congress has recently allocated $2,300,000,000 for "Pandemic Influenza Preparedness".

BTW I always thought this 1995 card game was fascinating. Epidemic=Power +14!
