From over a 140,000 votes cast in the AOL Poll, only 13% are currently stating that they will have the swine flu jab when available.This is most worrying and probably not because of anything to do with 'piggy fevers'.
This is a clear indicator that people are beginning to mistrust the health information given out by government and its so-called experts.
They 'have cried wolf' so many times that when a real scare comes along - nobody is going to believe them. Tragedy could ensue. The Spanish flu of 1918/9 killed 50 million - so these things do have potential for massive harm although better food, living conditions and even the simple, fever reducing paracetamol would make something of similar virulence less effective today. The virus would however, spread much more rapidly.
