swine flu

Post by simpthony »

Why is Swine flu any different from regular flu? I don't know why people are over reacting so much to the swine flu. Is it more deadly than the regular influenza? Many People get the flu every year, some may die from it, some may recover. But They never closed schools just because someone died from the flu. So why is the swine flu any different?

Media loves a death and mayhem and this is what flues will be in the future, it will be blown up by media so that everyone thinks they will surely die of the flu and not from old age.

It's a load of crap.

I refused to take the flu shot while most others did. Many, about half of the ones I know that did got sick enough to stay home from work a couple of days, or kids away from school. I know not a soul that did not take the shot that got sick. I felt nothing what so ever.

It's fucked up, that's what it is.

While many got sick from the vaccine I bet there are many side effects of same vaccine that probably will kill you, so now you can worry about that instead of dying from the flu. Touché, suckers!

Nobody cares about swine flu anymore. It's this volcanoe thing (and the general election) that's got the (UK) media now...

I gotta give Congress credit- passing the health care bill in the Senate at the beginning of the year managed to clear swine flu right up:

[Bot]’s have really evolved these days they can start pretty interesting threads now if they can just get them to buy a round of drinks.

I was just thinking the same thing. What the hell will they be like in twenty years?
