Thanks. I'll keep an eye on this one.


I have a Tactical Harness and I have a Tool Belt. The Tool Belt is more Useful.

Not uncommon.

Influenza is a respiratory infection caused by the influenza virus. Various strains of the virus circulate throughout the world -- causing local outbreaks -- year-round. In Canada, flu season usually runs from November to April, and an estimated 10-25% of Canadians could have the flu each year. Although most of these people recover completely, an estimated 4 000 to 8 000 Canadians -- mostly seniors -- die every year from pneumonia related to flu. Many others may die from other serious complications of flu.

Yes, My thoughts as well once I figure out the dead person was elderly. My only concern was that the couple of news articles did'nt give much specific info ( In true Noam Chompsky style, the trick is to try to read between the lines at what they dont say). So this will probably amount to nothing but I will keep an eye on it till Im sure the body is truely dead ( the story, that is...not that I expect them to come back as Zombies. lol)
