Start with a scary sounding disease, add one part confusing information, then top with a chance to make a buck, and youve got the perfect recipe for bogus products to prevent or cure swine flu.
Right now the FDA has a list of 140 "dont get fooled by these" products which claim to magically fight the swine. How about a shampoo which rids your head of any floating germs which may have used your head as a landing strip, or a magic wand that can zap H1N1 germs off ouf your clothes/body? Then there are the "Tamiflu" pills you can order online from India- which were probably manufactured in somebody's backyard. There's even a product called "Tamifly" which , I guess, gets the virus to fly out of your body.
Anyway, dont get taken in. You know how it works: if it sounds too good to be true (and youve got to pay for it), it probably is junk.
