US Secretary of Health and Human Services: "START STORING FOOD NOW!"

Ready or not, here it comes.
It is being spread much faster than first predicted from one wild flock of birds to another, an airborne delivery system that no government can stop.
"There's no way you can protect the United States by building a big cage around it and preventing wild birds from flying in and out," U.S. Secretary of Agriculture Michael Johanns said. Hysteria? The Neocon is not sure what to make of it.
