So you think SARS, avian/bird flu and all the rest just happened?

The media always just blames some asian country for the source of these viruses with very little detail to support the claim.

And btw, swine flu is not "the same strain that killed 50 million people in 1918".............or you would think millions would be dead from swine flu by now.
Yes! It does just happen when a virus or bacteria manages to make a cross-species jump to humans who have no natural immunity. Where do you think disease comes from!?

As for the swine flu, it's not identically the same, but apparently it shows the same virulence and capacity for rapid mutation as the Spanish flu did.
