Should I be stockpiling Tamiflu or other antivirals to protect myself against bird flu or pandemic influenza?

No, it is not recommended that citizens stockpile antiviral drugs to protect against bird flu or pandemic influenza. The antivirals have limited usefulness in the prevention of flu, and the virus is capable of becoming resistant over time. Stockpiling Tamiflu or other antiviral medications will also reduce already-limited supplies for the elderly and others at high risk for contracting seasonal influenza.

Consequently, Tamiflu and related drugs should only be administered under the guidance of a health care provider. More.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
