The WHO's response caused widespread, unnecessary fear and prompted countries around the world to waste millions of dollars, according to one report. At the same time, the Geneva-based arm of the United Nations relied on advice from experts with ties to drug makers in developing the guidelines it used to encourage countries to stockpile millions of doses of antiviral medications, according to the second report.” 12:27:28 PM 6/04/10 “Here a few years ago I bought another WM down bag as I knew for sure all the geese were gonna perish and I didn't want to lose out or pay extreme prices.” 12:48:53 PM 6/04/10 “it was my intent to smite humanity by this disease. at the last possible moment, mankind met its quota of jesus fish bumper stickers, so I cancelled the great plague.” 2:56:54 PM 6/04/10
