Where Is "The Rest of The Story"?

Ok...The Swine Flu, is big news, could possibly lead to a world wide pandemic. I understand the importance of this story and how it could effect the health of a lot of people...I got that. Officials and the media are concentrating on how many people either have this flu or suspected of having this Flu, where they got it, where they live, etc. This is all important.

But one thing officials and the media haven't really devoted enough energy to and communicated to the public is, if the people who have the swine flu are recovering. From what little I have been able to find, the answer is Yes, people are recovering from this Flu.

So why isn't the fact that people are recovering from this flu being shouted from the rooftops. This is "the rest of the story" that people need to know. This will prevent people from freaking out. Today I spent some time listening to a press conference where Gov . Patterson and Dr. Richard Daines updated the public on the Flu. Not once did Gov. Patterson or Dr. Daines mention if the people who had the flu were recovering. Not one reporter asked Gov. Patterson or Dr. Daines if the people who had the flu were recovering. Why wasn't this info given out? Why wasn't this question asked?

Are the authorities and the media trying to keep us on edge? Are they trying to convince us that we are on the verge of Armageddon? I know Gov. Patterson's ratings are down and media revenue is in the toilet, but cummon. Knowing "the rest of the story" will ease a lot of nerves.

Make It End....Please

Ok...the 20th District special election looks like it might be decided next century. But do you realize if Jimmy wins, we are all going to be tortured again when a special election will be held to fill his Assembly seat, the 110th assembly district.

It makes the little hair I have hurt thinking about it.
