The World Health Organization is planning to raise the level from 5 to 6..the highest rating,for Swine Flu. That means we are in the throes of a pandemic. Still the work of the scaremonger left-wing media or maybe something we should take seriously?

Answer:
Neither. Pandemic simply means: adj. 1. Widespread; general. 2. Medicine. Epidemic over a wide geographic area and affecting a large proportion of the population: pandemic influenza We have a flu pandemic every year. The flu killed around 14,000 in the US in the 2008 season. It often claims as many as 30,000 here and hundreds of thousands globally. The mortality rate for this A-H1N1 outbreak appears to be no greater than that of ordinary flu. The bummer is it's spreading just when the usual flu season is coming to an end.

People who say 'scaremonger left-wing media' shouldn't take it seriously.

I don't think there is much one can do one way or the other. We still have to carry on with our lives. It is those with chronic illnesses and obeisity who should be concerned. Otherwise, I think it is no different to a bout of flu that we have every year.
