The ____ flu: predict our next "pandemic"


Off-Topic Discussions


by the pattern i think our flus are following (mammal we eat(cow),bird,mammal we eat(pig)) I think our next flu pandemic will be either chicken or turkey, however, if this pattern isn't followed, I think fish may be next, specifically cod or salmon

what are your thoughts/predictions?


I predict the next one will be called P4N1C influenza virus B.


They say the current A-H1N1 is a combination of pig, avian, and human DNA, from those animals living in close proximity to each other in domesticity. Anyone who has read Charlotte's Web knows we should be on maximum alert for the dreaded Spiderpig Flu.

How about the Thri-Keen Flu?

E-bowlarama flu...caught from rented bowling shoes!!!

Taste like crap cost to much and makes you fat while wanting to puke.

What has Australia done for us lately? I'm going with Koala flu.

I just hope we'll have enough Tamiflu to deal with the upcoming Tammy Flu.


It will be zombie flu. Luckily, there's already a thread on Paizo's boards to prepare you. That's just the kind of place this is. Keep in mind, however, that the swine flu epidemic will not pass until all clones are dead.

Orc flu.

Wait a minute... Swine flu is human and pig DNA in one virus...

*looks up "Orc" in the first edition Monster Manual*

Swine flu is orc flu!

I do not believe spiderpig appreciates your accusations...

Accually, the next pandemic is the dreaded P4120 virus. It is supposed to hit sometime late summer. It causes restlessness, anxiety, and in some extreme cases (1 in 7) dementia. Check P4120 Virus for full details.

Since someone already beat me to Zombie Flu, I'll go with Platypus Flu instead. I've always thought those little things were creepy.

Which is exactly why it will be the Koala Flu. No one will get close enough to platypi to catch a virus from them. They can't even decide if they're birds or mammals, for crying out loud.

There's always the dreaded P1-N1-d20 virus.

It's symptoms are (roll 1d20)...

1-4 ...aching joints.
5-8 ...headache.
9-15 ...fever.
16-19 ...vomiting.
20 ...GM's choice.

nope ... it'll be the psychic flu. It's spread by merely thinking about it ... much like you are right now. MWAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!

Followed shortly by the d21 mutation. It's one better!

You get that from Drop Bears - They look just like Koala's but they are carnivorous and carry a deadly virus under their claws. They kamikaze at you from out of gum trees gut you and eat your intestines.

If you survive and get away you usually die of the infected wounds a day or so later ;-)

They Lay eggs, feed their young with milk and are warm blooded. The males have poisonous spurs on their hind legs. They have an inbuilt movement sensor in their bills so they can find grubs and worms when they are snuffling around the creek bed.

What is not to like, they are too classy an animal to have a virus.

I don't believe in your "platypusses." You can't trick me.

They're taxidermic hoaxes, much like the jackalope, or the monkey mermaids of freakshows of yore.

Get real, dude. They're more dangersome than drop bears.

Oh, no! We're doomed!

And for some reason, I typed P1 instead of H1 in my last post. Maybe the next big virus will be the typo flu, whose symptoms include the inability to properly spell the name of the virus.

No, you just get that from being a wanna be hacker and typing in l33t speak.
