H1N1 ( Swine Flue )

The Times: Reports that the wife of the former UK PM Tony Blair, Cherie Blair has come down with H1N1, the swine flue. Lets hope she gets well soon, but it shows that any body can get H1N1. Also it should be noted that the Spanish Flue of 1918 was more severe in the second round. Thus the UK should expect more people to go down with H1N1, also one should expect the death toll to go up, it is reported that it has reached 29. If the H1N1 turns in to the version of the 1918 flue it can be argued that we have been let down by the UK Government. At the start of the H1N1 problem in Mexico we should have closed down the UK, yes the economy would have been hurt, the civil rights groups would have gone up the wall, but we might have prevent the disease coming in the UK. Thus if we have lost 29 individuals due to the H1N1 there should be a public inquiry in the action of the UK Government under PM Gordon Brown.
