I think the point Tecoyah and others were trying to make is that FEMA *should* be capable the fact that they aren't is disturbing.
I also think it will take the military *and* the national guard to contain something as big as the projections on avian flu...
Honestly, I don't think any of us are ready for it. Domestic and International travel are too prevalent. One infected airplane will be enough to do it... think about just one airplane load of infected passengers landing in Chicago, La Guardia, Los Angeles... How many people will they come into contact with and what are the destinations of all those people?
Wild fires in LA are slower to spread than this...
