I know that historically, a flu pandemic strikes about every 50 years and that we're slightly overdue.

But how it gets translated with such certainty in the media as THE NEXT pandemic, is beyond me. It's just as likely that the next pandemic could be a completely different viral source, and no one will see it coming because the scientific community is so preoccupied with Avian flu.
