  However, do you know what *is* crazy? Thousands of pigs being slaughtered
and international import bans on pork. Why? For the sole reason that it's
called "swine flu". No other reason. It doesn't matter how much the WHO and
everybody is telling that the name in no way implies that pigs spread the
disease. If it was called something else, then the poor animals would not
get slaughtered and people would be none the wiser.
