Those photos of Asians wearing masks have been effective, haven't they? By now you probably wring your hands every time someone near you sneezes.

Maybe you've canceled a plane trip or decided to stay away from large groups of people…just to be safe.

Good thinking. Just stay in, watch the war on TV (Operation Iraqi Freedom Ta Da!) and nurse that fear and anxiety you've been feeling. Unless of course, like me, your THERE'S MORE TO THIS THAN WE'RE BEING TOLD radar went off the very first time you heard about this "mysterious" disease called S.A.R.S. - short for severe acute respiratory syndrome. Relax, the mega public health "experts" are working feverishly to try and figure out just what this coughing, sneezing, shortness of breath "disease" is.

In the meantime you can be comforted by the Executive Order President Bush signed Friday afternoon saying "health authorities" can hold you against your will if they even think you have this "virus". The E.O. Specifically made provisions for "apprehension, detention or conditional release" (.i.e. "be a good little citizen and take your vaccine/ medicine and we'll let you go")... "of individuals who refuse hospitalization and isolation".

Oh, you missed the announcement of that executive order? That's understandable. See, it's standard operating procedure for any risky political move ; you sign it, pass it, cram it down our collective throats right before a holiday or on a Friday, after everyone's gone home for the weekend to worry about stuff like whether to order in or go out for pizza.

And exactly how much media attention did this executive order to QUARANTINE Americans receive? A tiny blurb at the bottom of a page is where I found it. S.A.R.S is really at this point just a collection of vague symptoms that anybody can have a number of times a year. This "disease" is the first to be added to the quarantine list in over 20 years The last large-scale quarantine in this country was in 1918 during the Spanish flu pandemic.

Some preliminary research into the symptoms and likely cause of this pneumonia-like virus (of which there are over 50 strains, by the by) shows a number of reasons why this has all the earmarks of an effort to control the masses and none of the markers for a bona fide pandemic......
