Lebron James has Swine Flu!?!

Building on this afternoon’s theme of hysteria among the masses, it seems that multiple Cleveland Cavaliers players have contracted a strain of what could be Swine Flu. Could the Global Icon be felled by the Global Pandemic?

↵Maybe so, according to the Plain-Dealer:

↵↵LeBron James, Darnell Jackson and Coby Karl have all tested positive for Influenza A, according to Cleveland Cavaliers spokesman Tad Carper, and the team will treat them as if they have H1N1.

↵H1N1 is a strain of Influenza A. Carper said this afternoon that the Cavaliers’ entire traveling party would be treated with medication in an effort to prevent spread of the virus.

↵↵

The Cavs don’t seemed too concerned, however, as all three players are traveling with the team. But still… SWINE FLU? LEBRON? Meme!
