I work in a hospital, the government response was nothing impressive.

Nor am I convinced that H1N1 was a significant health risk to the public at large. I must have a different definition of "disaster."

H1N1 was a tool to unite the sheeple into giving the government more power.

Maybe in a populated, under equipped, uneducated country (couple of asian ones come to mind) it could have been a disaster, but in most western worlds it probably wasnt.

It was a tool, all right, but not for anything to do with "more power".
