Flu Epidemic O/U

[imitation]

Not sure if this should be hear or one of the other gambling forums, but I thought it might be good here. This was sparked by a thread in stock market on the effect of Avian Flu on the world's economies but I think the over and under is an interesting place. I'm putting the bar at 5yrs.

I'd sell 5 years all day long...

They are thinking this xmas in the UK....(Bird Flu)

I'm calling the over, I think flu virus stuff is all bs. The theory I constantly here is, we haven't had one for a long time so like we're due....sounds like gamblers falacy. Wooooh better put all my money on black reds been up 5 times in a row.

this thing looks really scary...and it could mutate to be easily spread by humans any time now. Was just talking about this last night in Microbiology class...it could and will mostly likely be some scary sh-t! they're estimating millions will die

[/ QUOTE ]although I wish it was all a hoax, it's actually a real virus that has already killed people in asia...it's not so much that oh is been a long time and we're 'due' for a pandemic...the point is that if this thing does spread, we aren't prepared with vaccinations and if you do get it, you're pretty much screwed
