I was just wondering why after so many years and such a huge population, we still do not have a 911 system in place. I mean Isnt that the basic infrastructure needed? If we dont have that how can we control further epidemics? and it seems to be coming from every animal these days

Or, is it the "cup is half-empty or half-full" paradox? I was watching middle east news and they say 4 H1N1 deaths out of 500 hospitalize cases. In US, the official site reports, "522 deaths out of 7900 hospitalized cases". Our media reports like, "H1N1 - one more person dies!!!!", which creates all the paranoea?
