Swine Flu Pandemic

The cases in Canada has now reached thirteen. The cases are all considered "mild".
 4.  in Ontario
 2. in Alberta
 4. in Nova Scotia.
 3. in British Columbia.
I'm sure were going to get more to come too.
Its going to get worse before it gets better as the old saying goes...I just keep washing my hands frequently and I keep up on the news, and keep educated to be aware of any new precautions to take.
I will be so glad when its under control!!

There are cases confirmed in London. Meh.

A lady coughed on the tube next to me earlier. Then she blew her nose. I am now frightened I'll die.

Two more cases in New Hampshire. The first case which I wrote about above, the person had no contact with anyone from Mexico, nor do they know how they got it. Authorities confirmed that's the truth!

Also, with Tamiflu, it does NOT make the Swine Flu go away, it just relives the victim of SOME of the symptoms, and I imagine it doesn't work with everyone.

They talked to a mom and daughter that both had it on the local news today.  They are already better, and from what they were saying, it's not any worse than your average flu.[/QUOTE]
Do you believe it? Better all ready? I doubt it. Money talks.

Yeah, they are better.  The daughter was one of the kids on the trip to Cancun that I mentioned.  They took Tamiflu, and it did help.  I'm not anymore worried about getting this than any other flu virus.

A person could have full blown AIDS and have a good day, and claim they are cured, but we'd know the truth. Don't always believe what people say. It's like a blood transfusion for someone who needs one, they are still sick after the blood transfusion, and whatever they have will come back. It's been stated Tamiflu can't cure you from Swine Flu, what it does do is eliminate some of the symptoms, maybe even all the symptoms, but it doesn't cure anyone. It made them feel better, but is it possible the symptoms can come back?

I just sent the following advice to the World Health Organisation.  Still waiting on a reply though :(

im ready for the pig flu,ive got myself an oinkment! :-p

*backs very quickly out the room before the rotten vegetables are thrown*

Oinkment. Very funny, Joxer. Actually made me chuckle this morning. :-)

Re. the conversation above... People are indeed getting better. The media is making this into much more than it is. It's a new strain of flu. Simple. And flu - in any form - can be life-threatening.

This flu is no different from any other strain without a vaccine. Hundreds of people die each month from the "regular" flu - that's thousands of people every year. We have to stop panicking and acting like this flu is going to wipe out half the population. Use some common sense. Wash your hands often, cover your mouth when you cough/sneeze, avoid others who are sick, and if you feel ill, hope you don't get hit by a bus on your way to the doctor.

WE'RE ALL GOING TO DIE.

IT'S OVER.

BAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA.

Yes, I'm well aware that Tamiflu doesn't not cure the flu.  It does, however, assist your body in fighting the virus by reducing it's duration and severity.

its not BAAAAAAAAAAAAAA, its OINNNNNNNNNNNNK!

Ironically, in the past few years, when I have decided for whatever reason to suddenly get manic and wash my hands obsessively to avoid getting sick, then, inevitably, that''s when I DO get sick. 

Perhaps my strategy should be to do nothing.  :/

O_o

The CDC says that over 36,000 people a year [i]in the United States [/i]die from the common flu.

Let me know when we get in the same ball park.
