H1N1 is hitting everyone. The government is doing what it’s good at doing as always, and that is nothing. Blame the hospital for the first casualty. Then more deaths followed, so now what? Blame all the hospitals in the country. Irony is even a Doctor that fell to the disease and died.

Our honorable health minister Ghulam Nabi Azad, besides besides being a ‘Ghulam’ to Sonia can never make the country ‘Azad’ of this problem. It is a catastrophe which is not being addressed as one. So more deaths will happen, and unfortunately none of the politicians ever die in such circumstance which is sad. Be it be riots, floods, pandemic, epidemic, war, it’s always the innocent common man that dies. Even a terrorist attack on the parliament could not have any of these swine’s eliminated.

Our earlier health minister Health minister Anbumani Ramadoss who had contended that on-screen depiction of smoking was against public interest as people try to imitate their stars' actions and get tempted to take up smoking which is injurious to health. How can one be so confused, where one does not know whether he is a health minister or Censor Board Head? Has banning on screen stopped cigarette consumption in India? Our Union Agriculture and Food Minister Sharad Pawar was recently giving his comments of should the Airline Industry be bailed or not. When there are starvation deaths is his own state he is concerned about what should be done to the Airline Industry or would be busy deciding on cricketing policies. No minister was, is or will be ever bothered about the health of the people. They are only worried about the wealth they can amass.

It is mandatory that any suspect of swine flu symptoms should be reported and diagnosed at a government hospital. Why is it not mandatory for all the politicians and their families to have their health related issues addressed only at government hospitals? Just reminds me of an old story of our former, beloved and late Prime Minister V P Singh who once made a hefty donation to the war fund. From where? London. What's he doing there? Undergoing dialysis. Isn't it available in India? Sure is, and done by competent doctors, too. Who accompanied him to London? His entire family and the Special Protection Group. Where are they staying? At one of the most expensive hotels. What firearms does the SPG use to protect him? As per British law, they were divested of all their weapons at the airport itself. Then how do they propose to protect him? Who paid for the trip and the entourage? The Indian government looks after ex-PMs with tax-payers' money. What's the damage to the exchequer? Nearly Rs 20 million, and how much did Raja V P Singh donate to the war fund, Rs. 50000/-
What does it take to keep our prime minister — and ex-PMs —fit as a fiddle? About 32 doctors, 27 paramedics and seven ambulances round the clock. In monetary terms, about Rs 23 lakhs a month. Besides the PM, six former PMs and Sonia Gandhi, and their kith and kin, are entitled to an unlimited health budget. For example, Rs 15 crores was spent on former PM V P Singh’s treatment in the US and England.

The common man can take comfort that they would be treated by these swine’s, as bloody swine’s.
