Joe Biden says "Now is the Time to Panic and Hide"
OK so he didn’t say exactly THAT but he did say we shouldn’t go out on to the subways, or planes or any other confined spaces.
The Vice President of the U.S.A. thinks that the American economy should grind to a halt because a few people have the flu. That, quite frankly, has left me momentarily speechless!
Here are the direct quotes
"Vice President Joe Biden said Thursday that he would not recommend taking any commercial flight or riding in a subway car “at this point” because swine flu virus can spread “in confined places.” A little more than one hour later, Biden rushed out a statement backing off.
“I would tell members of my family — and I have — I wouldn’t go anywhere in confined places now,” Biden said on NBC’s “Today” show.. “It’s not that it’s going to Mexico. It’s [that] you’re in a confined aircraft. When one person sneezes, it goes all the way through the aircraft. That’s me. …
“So, from my perspective, what it relates to is mitigation. If you’re out in the middle of a field when someone sneezes, that’s one thing. If you’re in a closed aircraft or closed container or closed car or closed classroom, it’s a different thing.”
In the meantime, Georgia is feeling a little left out, since they haven’t had any confirmed cases there. A health official has gone on record as saying that swine flu is coming and people will die. We’ve heard that swine flu likes Georgia, but it’s just been real busy visiting friends and family. Maybe it’ll stop by Saturday for a bit if you think you’ll be home!
Dr. Patrick O’Neal, director of preparedness in the Georgia Division of Public Health, told reporters on Wednesday that the chances of the swine flu bypassing the state are “virtually nil.” That’s because influenza is highly contagious.
COME ON!! Did he really say that???? According to AJC.com That’s a direct quote. Well good gosh, the good Dr Patrick, as it turns out, was right. Influenza IS highly contagious. I am sure that the doctor was thrilled to hear that swine flu finally has been confirmed in Georgia!
The state health chief said Thursday that Georgia has its first case of swine flu — in a 30-year-old woman from Kentucky who was visiting the state. The woman, whom officials would not identify, is in a hospital in LaGrange in Troup County, said Elizabeth Ford, head of the state Division of Public Health.
I don’t think that counts though. She’s not actually FROM Georgia, she’s from Kentucky. Dr O’Neal was last seen doing one potato, two potato with a health official from Kentucky to see who could claim her.

I love the wit in your blogs. Makes me laugh. And laughing is a good thing in this serious world we live in.
Funny that Joe Biden just repeated what doctors have told me and my family for 50+ years in 6 states plus Spain and Scotland while I was in the military.Still did the very last time I went to the doctor in Flu season!
Exposure increases your chance of catching ANY communicable disease and increases your chances of spreading any communicable disease that you may have.Now this may not be politically correct to some,but it is true and correct.Disregard all common sense?Money rules?Go ahead.Satisfy those who are only interested in their own interest!Increase your chances of catching and spreading the Flu!After all,money is much more important than your families health or life to THEM.
Ain’t politics something?Alfred Price-Williams
A Question for Shelley Penney.
If the woman from Kentucky who brought the Swine Flu to Georgia does not count (“I don’t think that counts though.She’s not actually FROM Georgia,she’s from Kentucky”),then how can they count the USA cases in other states that caught it in Mexico?this is the same kind of situation.Your thinking process eludes me.We have it on our soil.How can we claim it is not a case in Georgia just because it was caught somewhere else?Is not this a case of ignoring the facts and truth?Shifting the records around does not move the Flu back to Kentucky!It was still found in Georgia.Thanks,Alfred Price-Williams
It was a JOKE Alfred. (haha) I was making fun of Dr O Neal’s melodrama
