This is obviously a hoax. I would recommend NOT forwarding it to any other
people. Don't you think if it were real they'd announce it on their web
site, or in the media? Speaking of email hoaxes, let me take a moment to
mention that you cannot get a virus through email either. I get so tired of
people sending me those warnings!
