As Mr.Khushwant Singh once said, the people of the developed world are much more susceptible to virus infections than those in developing countries, unused as they are to unhygienic environments that are so routine in countries such as India.
They have had 'pandemics' such as BSE, Saars, Bird flu, etc. and now they have Swine flu !
None of these 'pandemics' have had any effect in India and neither will 'Swine flu' have any !
