Not that any government has enough of Tamiflu to give to the whole of the population. On the brighter side they don't know if Tamiflu would even work, in fact it probably won't. Even more on the brighter side as far as i am aware this has only killed about 60 people in the whole of asia, or about 3bn people. Again here the 60 people cause of death was suspected to be Bird Flu and each of these has been working closely with birds.
To sum up this is all media hype, which has helped to sell papers. If i'm wrong then i'll probably be dead so nevermind.
