This is something like the 4th swine flu topic to pop up, and the one that looks most like spam (although it is not)

There is no danger of ACEN closing due to swine flu, but it's your choice whether to come or stay home.

Now, I believe this thread can be closed. : |

An unclever ruse? Or an act of unneeded panic? I'll let you make the call.

No. It will not be cancelled. This has been discussed by MAPS staff members already. ACen is still on.

There aren't that many cases of swine flu, in comparison to how many people live in this country. There's only about 100 confirmed cases. The only death that happened was a Mexican toddler who recently came to America when he was already sick.

THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE DIE EVERY YEAR BECAUSE OF NORMAL SEASONAL FLU.

There's always going to be germs in ANY large social settings, such as ACen. You should ALWAYS take precautions against illness. Wash your hands, don't sneeze/cough on your hands, etc.

STOP PANICKING. The media is blowing this out of proportion.

This clearly isn't a real post. Why do these people always show up the week before the con?

Could the admins put a perma-ban on these swine flu topics? They keep reproducing like bunnies. It's ridiculous.

This one is just someone trying to start something. I say admins give some of us the power to ban for a while. :D

If ACen was really worried about this then they would have closed ACen for this year thus the death of many ACen-goers and we would have people through themselves off bridges because acen cancelled (And that's a hella lot of people). If your this concerned and want to go then use common sense and wash your hands avoid couging into peoples faces and sneezing. Just use common sense basically. We lose more people to the normal flu then swine flu. There is something to help if someone does catch this it's called Tampaflu. One kid had swine took tampaflu and was okay and back to school soon afterwards. Just wash your hands and avoid coughs and sneezes.

Either that, or give us the power to move topics to the PHAIL section.

I will now be closing this the 5th or 6th swine flue thread.

As noted before ACEN WILL NOT BE CANCELED BECAUSE OF THE STUPID SWINE FLU.

Use common sense and wash your hands and you should be fine.
