Are you THAT stupid?

1)D you know how they make vaccines for the normal flu?

2) Do you understand why the avian flu would be harder to make a vaccine against.

3) Do you understand that the issue is NOT about an existing flu strain, but one that is LIKELY to eventually arise? Thus a vaccine against something that hasnt arisen yet is a little difficult to come up with....

4) A truly huge avian flu epidemic could spread quickly and overwhelm medical facilities rapidly.

5) making a vaccine in quantities of 100's of millions of doses is not something you do in a couple of months.

6) Do you think before you post?
