Starts out mild then mutates into a deadly little...

Except that 1918 was vastly different to now.
No need to list the differences, we're all pretty knowledgable on this thread.. suffice to say..

The worldwide vigilance makes it different this time.. not to say we wont see sales.. just don't expect 1918 Version2.0
and don't be relying on the emergence of the same level of virulence... It will likely emerge someplace (likely lacking remedies and effective state control eg Africa, former soviet states, south american slums etc etc) by which time there will,, in all probability be an effective vaccine.

I think its a buy on the fundamentals revealed on this thread alone........ THANKYOU to posters.

Some strains will kill some of the people some of the time but all people will want protection all of the time.
