Add Israel to the list. It now seems likely that large, unsanitary, crowded (and cruel) commercial pig-farms might be responsible - if this is a natural (sic) event. Another reason to consider promotion of vegetarianism or, at least, free-range animals. The Avian flu was coming from the similar commercial chicken farms in SEA. Anyway you look at it humans and their overpopulation, domination and industrialization/corporatization of the Planet is destroying everything and may soon consume us all. Mad cow disease (caused by a prion, not a virus) was spread and impelled by crowded commercial cow herds. This planet needs to rid itself of the human plague, unless we return to the Natural fold and sustainability. See my thread in Environment on Jensen. He is calling for the immediate dismantling of 'civilization'. [The Deep Political 'stuff' would also play in to this view, in the dismantling of empire(s), the domination paradigm and a return to neo-tribalism......]
Someone seems to be cooking the Mexico books on cases [likely to avoid panic] as the numbers of dead have not increased in 24 hours - nearly an impossibility.
