Swine Flu

[CliffordII]

Its not going to kill you unless u have a crappy immune system... its just the flu that was given a name that makes it sounds like its real bad. -roll- Ohhh yeah, ive also seen on the news like 1-2 weeks ago, that OTC flu/cold stuff works on killing the virus.

The UK goverment have created a advert and a mini site
http://www.direct.gov.uk/en/swineflu/DG_177831
They say face masks will not help but things like washing hands will really help.

 

[Rich Edmonds]

If it really is like a normal flu but just slightly worse then I'm not really that bothered, I'm quite a hygenic person anyway.

 

[Dylan]

Thats good i am too but i have hayfever so i am sneezing every 10 secs nearly lol so its hard to keep doing it.

Latest news
The UK goverment will send this http://www1.sky.com/news/NHS_pandemic_update.pdf to every house in the uk.

If it was just like normal flu then the WHO wouldnt make this a level 5 threat level would they?..

Also considering it comes from pigs i wouldnt think its normal flu.

Unless we are pigs .Pigs are given jabs well injections for the normal swine which normaly works.There is no point in culling animals like in china as it is now going for human to human.The UK have confirmed sombody has had it and they have not been to mexico if this does spread it will go to level 6.

We shouldnt be worried about the swine flu and im not either.

I dont see why some people are thinking that they will die, when they are no-where near the people who are effected :S

Some people take it way too far..

 

[Tolken]

I am not worried, I think it is calming down anyway.

 

[Ryanplex]

Honestly iam not worried about this at all, even tho i guess the state i live in (NY) is one of the states that has outbreaks in them lol.

 

[Ascent]

Some kid in my school has it. O_O

 

[Rok]

Did they close your school down?

It hasn't reached where I live... yet.

2 people in England have gone critical from it, one just from swine flu the other had something else. -bigeyes-

Be afraid.

And just found this story on it.

[Callum93]

Doesn't mention Stevenage and I'm not scared of swine flu.

 

[Van1lla ™]

Yeah i meant a story on swine flu. -redface- And im not scared as i doubt i will get it, im scared about my interview tomorrow though. -🙁-

 

[Rok]

There's not a big chance of getting it anyway.
