Atleast its a "moderate pandemic." Fatalities seem to be around 1 percent. :violin:

I think Ive had it or am having it right now, been coughing and hocking like a smoker for 3 weeks...

did you hear they are restricting people who might be supseptable to the swine flu from going on hajj its crazy i thought the thing dropped already. i guess better safe than sorry.

i saw on the news that one of the harry potter kids had it

Its like normal flu, some people have been unluckier but usually they are asthmatics etc

yes, Rupert from Harry Potter was seperated from the others at the premiere,

as for hajj, suppose its a bit different method than stampedement to death...

Hey Ooopa, I hope you are well by now. I changed one time my medicine and was also coughing like had lung desease, but it was all because of the new medicine I was taking...

I will tell you the problem, the drs dont confirm if youve had it or not, they are not offering tests for milder cases. So if you are not at deaths door then you dont know if you are in for something worse later on..

Really? I guess is different here in old USA.....

We just had a major league pitcher for the Texas Rangers confirmed with the strain. I am wondering how this is going to play out this fall when flu season hits.

Glad you are feeling better, oomp!

i heard on the news that they finaly found a vacine for it and that people 65 and up are some how immune to it.... glad ur better oomp

yes in some countries there was a flu like this a few decades ago, in Uk there was and the oldies have some immunity to it, yes better now, just dont know if I actually had it, doctor relative of mine said they are not doing the swabs when people are ill because too much processing to do, so i think the figures are way higher than registered, but moderate symptoms are just staying home and getting over it..

Look at it this way, if you had it- you are over it by now and surely have immune bodies in yourself . So you are OK if something more serious strikes this fall...I want to get get vacine, but seems they won't be ready.
In the meantime, take your vitamins , live and eat healthy... I guess this must help a little....

I boil my tinfoil hat once a week, whether it needs it or not. I *know* I'm safe...
