Arguably the main issue here isn't the swine flu itself specifically, but the fact that currently dominant animal farming practices are fundamentally unsound and are excellent places for pathogens to evolve and spread quickly. Also, while China is particular bad in this respect many of the worst and riskiest animal farming practices are common globally including in Europe and the US. We really need to rethink animal farming if our goal is to have stable meat supplies, but then there are many reasons for that with environmental sustainability being possibly an even more serious related issue.
