Pig farmers are complaining and asking the media to stop calling it the swine flu. It's killing their business. You can't catch it from eaing pigs and no pig has yet been identified as having this particular strain. True enough. But show me almost any new infectious disease, and I'll show you an enviromental change brought about by humans that either caused or exacerbated it.
Bird flu could become the next pandemic because of the way chickens are raised on these mega-farms. And that would make this one look like the sniffles.
I know, instead of the swine flu, let's call it the tofu flu! Overcrowding those soybeans, you know.
