Believe it or not, some pork producers have asked the government to stop calling it swine flu--as though we might be dissuaded from buying "swine chops" at the grocer.

I think creating global hysteria around pigs is ridiculous considering the the fact that you don't catch H1N1 fro the pork chops in Loblaws. I say drop the swine and spare not only an industry, but thousands upon thousands of innocent pigs. At least if it's bacon, they've died for a reason.
Next thing you know they'll take Babe off the shelf in your local video store and erase Pig Pen from all the old Charlie Brown cartoons!
Why is this thread topic "Mexico flu"? Why not just "Swine flu"?
um, did it not start in Mexico? Yes it did - so therefore it is properly titled...
when it is a bird flu they called it Asian Bird flu - because it started there...
maybe they should call it Mexican Swine Flu - just to be correct...
I think the biggest joke was the mayor of mexico city saying it was Asian.. LOL now that is a joke - he is just trying to save the tourism and drug trade from going under

Hey! Those drugs are carefully inspected for infectious organisms prior to export!

I agree. Everyone now knows it as the Mexican flu, so trying to rechristen it for PR purposes at this late stage is counterproductive to public safety,
