Bird-flu bill lets medical officers seize land, cars

SATURDAY , 27 MAY 2006

By KAMALA HAYMAN
Nurses will sign death certificates and medical officers will be able to seize any land, buildings or cars needed during a flu pandemic if far-reaching law changes are approved.
Governments love any opportunity to seize property and land, don't they?

This is what I don't care for. There is a difference between saying that something might and telling the people to get ready because it is coming.

the only part I agree with, is the part where Dr. Butcher states: "This disease is going to fizzle out, and be replaced by ANOTHER 'potential world-wide threat'..."

Aye...they are very misleading, that's why I hate it. I mean yeah there is some bird flu but they really blew it out of proportion...seems very unlikely to be a threat to humans or even migrating birds yet all the hype.
