So 2 cruise ships in the last few days,have docked in Rhodes.A passenger on one of the ships had the virus.It also docked in Limassol in Cyprus and Haifa in Israel.Watch this space.
 
Why aren't the media reporting details about these cases in the uk?

All well and good saying 50 cases but if those 50 cases have the sniffles only then it's not quite the same as the most extreme version of it.

Still feels to me like it's no real difference than the flu itself much like swine flu this decade didn't go on a widespread deadly spree . Seems in all this panic and media driven hysteria people are forgetting there was another flu emergency in recent years that amounted to next to nothing.

If the media stopped talking about it for a week , noone would be worried. Hearing about it 24/7 is creating hysteria like it's the black plague when in fact it really isn't any more dangerous than any other virus you can catch.

Consider it from this angle, as in, not the danger to life per ce.

The media does indeed shut up, and folk generally forget about it. So it spreads. Quickly. Hundreds of avoidable hospital admissions duly follow, which puts intolerable strain on the NHS, and shunts other stuff it does down the pecking order as well.

Then this small % of deaths kinda becomes a large actual number of people. (Plus others denied NHS treatment, see above)

It isnt a danger to people, now. It isnt really a danger to the NHS, now.

So this programme is designed to keep it that way.
