WELL, actually as far as RISKS go - it is just the OPPOSITE! Flu is REPORTED / PREDICTED to INCREASE this winter - due to society and schools OPENING up more THIS year than last. Last year more people tended to quarantine, traveled less, and wear masks. In general, they felt more risks and acted accordingly.
.........I am NOT sure about measles, but I would assume an increase this winter.
.........If post #2 was correct about 1,000 deaths per year from measles, that would be insignificant compared to CV deaths.
..........However, the Afghanistan population infusion could increase that unless at the US bases, they got shots? Somehow, I doubt that - probably due to religious reasons.
I consider that my information about predicted increased FLU - is solid information from respected TV news hosts and a respected newspaper.
........ These dashed ones are my OWN conjecture and opinions which I give over to the Forum for further discussion by the TV Land experts.....sincerely.
........Incidentally, the only LINKS that I could be sure that are more than opinion or worse - dark conspiracies - are CUFFLINKS ! I can't live my life going around memorizing LINKS that, anyway, would be shot down by 60% of posters as liberal, commie TV channels and newspapers. Sorry!
