Economic Side of H1N1

The media is hyping too much on the so-called pandemic of H1N1. Most of us are scary about contaminating this kind of illness.
Today, pharmaceutical companies have gullible people to take advantage. This is not to say that all of them are doing it. But we cannot deny that our woes are their gains.
Looking at TVs and Internet of the various preparations of most governemnts in the world, we can duduce that the business that the H1n1 could generate would redound to billion of dollars and euros. The ones who will gain? Naturally, the pharmaceutical companies which many of them have no hearts except always looking for their greedy interest.
Sometimes many of us are also suspecting with our wild imagination that how about if these pharmaceuticals hired genetic engineers to creat this malady. Then they would hire public relation through media to so fear. Presto they could manufacture the antidote--vaccines and other related drugs and equipments. Billions of dollars in profit.
These pharmaceutical companies will reap profits after profits. We people are the losers.
So, before we become panicky let's should know first if our fear is founded or not. If only this fear is orchestreted for profits, then let's stop all this madness.
