    West Nile virus...

    Anyone going to Shatnerball worried about this? My mom is giving me *** and so is the GF. I'm personally not worried, I'll bring some off or something but still..

    No need for her or anyone to panic this is a problem only for the real elderly or infirmed and Immulogicaly challenged. Even if you were to contract an active infection it is like a flu and your chances of complications are pretty much nil. Besides it's pretty much everywhere. Just because a few states have not discoved it yet does not mean they do not have it. I bet they all do. Our State only recently confirmed it even though we have beed surrounded by it for several years.

      If you were to catch it, you wouldn't even know.

      We have it bad up here but nobody really even seems to care.

          its not as big of a deal as they make it out to be, only 4 people have died and they were all elderly, only 30 some cases have been reported

          small children and the elderly are the biggest at risk, so you should be fine

              I saw a dead possum here last week, I'm thinking Insane Possum disease is rampant here....

                  Well its a well know fact here that Possums are born dead on the side of the road. Now down further south theres are Armored but it seems to do them little good.

                              man, that stuff showed up in jersey before any other state. i had a "mild case" of it. whoopie. i think everyone gets it. the symptoms are the same as a cold, unless ur old or really young.
