I saw a commercial earlier which said more people died of this than in World War 1 and that "IT WILL HAPPEN AGAIN" and to get some vaccine. Is this just some bullshit fear propaganda or is it for real? The commercial looked really propaganda-esque.

The influenza pandemic of 1918-1919 killed more people than the Great War, known today as World War I (WWI), at somewhere between 20 and 40 million people. It has been cited as the most devastating epidemic in recorded world history. More people died of influenza in a single year than in four-years of the Black Death Bubonic Plague from 1347 to 1351. Known as "Spanish Flu" or "La Grippe" the influenza of 1918-1919 was a global disaster.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pandemic_flu but there's no vaccine now for the next one since you can't develop it until it actually breaks...like the normal flu vaccine.

Sounds like the sexiest flu ever!
It's going to suck dick in a "gag vomit all over your crotch then pass out" kind of way.

Do I get to slap it in the face and shove it's face in a toilet afterwards?
That's my job! I work in Immunization.
