Across this overcrowded capital of 20 million people, Mexicans are reacting with fatalism and confusion, anger and mounting fear at the idea that their city may be ground zero for a global epidemic of a new kind of flu - a strange mix of human, pig and bird viruses that has epidemiologists deeply concerned.
