What if.....

It did become a mass panademic that led to a death toll over 100 million worldwide. Better yet, how would America react to a situation where even just 5% of it's population was wiped out in a short timespan ? 5% of our population would be 15 million. That's nearly the population of the state of Florida.

-What to do with 15 million bodies. mass graves or cremation ?

-Would you even leave your house for work knowing any person you ran across could give you death ?

-Could society even begin to function normaly ?

Discuss

PS~ I label this theoretical because I don't believe this will happen, or atleast not from this strain of flu.

I'd Save money on Gas.....

Or I'd go to Nebraska guided bye dreams in which an old black woman screams about the rats being in the corn

What if you were a kid or an adult that caught it at work or school, and you knew you could probably never go home again to tell your family goodbye?

This would probably kick my "work from home" plan into high gear.

That was Colorado, and the cool people all went to Vegas.

What if someone offered you a million dollars, but the catch was you had to eat his poop?

I don't think I'd do it!

My grandfather has a place in central PA, about 100 miles from anywhere... I'd do the same thing as I would in an invasion, large scale terror attack or pandemic. I'd run to the hills, camp in the woods with my family and wait it all out. We're not nutso survivalists or anything... but my extended family has a plan in place should anything ever happen like that.

Interesting. Considering one of the biggest carriers of the flu is just above Australia, 15 million dead would pretty much wipe out 80% of our population.

I would become a Ninja Looter for a while and then find some horny Sydney sluts that want to fuck all day long in my newly looted king sized, vibrating, heart-shaped bed, contracting and swapping STD's until we concocted one strong enough to counteract the bird flu.

That would definately be something for King to write about. :chimp:

I am drunk as shit right now and I am looking through old Abasuto posts, and maodammit I'm bumping this. What use to spend all this effort to save the forums if no one ever reads the old threads, right?
