Close the border now! Just the latest way we will all suffer and die - not just Americans, but the world - from the lack of political will over the last 3 decades to deal with the flood of illegal immigration across the US/MEX border. You can screem all the airports, but without viable border restrictions( militarize the border ) none of it will do any good. One would think that with all the murderous drug crime on the border, this alone would be enough to get the border under control. So what does it take; a pandemic? The only reasonable assumption is that they want it this way. God help us all.

This virus just appears and spreads so fast, can't be nature taking its natural course, mark my words.

I hope the deaths aint like the 1918 flu epidemic.

I hope the deaths aint like the 1918 flu epidemic.

With a global population of 6.5 billion... it can be much worse than 1918. It could be the book of Revelation.

The 1918 pandemic is estimated to have affected up to one billion people: half the world's population at the time. It is estimated that anywhere from 20 to 100 million people were killed worldwide, which mean this epidemic could potentially kill 325 million(aprox. the pop. of the US) or more, given that many more people live in overcrowded urban centers than they did back in 1918.
