The media ideological use of narration about Hong Kong influenza viruses, is studied. A connection of the media discourse of Hong Kong flus of the first decade of the twenty–first century and the falls of Hong Kong stock exchange indexes, may be traced. The ideological tales about Hong Kong flus were more important in the world mass media than the medical essence of the flus.
