I really hope Swine Flu doesn't spread again.

Not again please not again

[QUOTE=matt000024;40795579]I really hope Swine Flu doesn't spread again.[/QUOTE] Yeah, especially as current evidence suggests that it was the agent behind the Spanish Flu.

Fuck every fiber of this. I don't want to go through this shit again.

man, no toilet paper, now this? if swine flu gives you the shits, this place is about to turn into a hell on earth.

That's the one that happened in 2009-2010? Yeah I remember how a private clinic turned me down when I asked them to run tests on me. They said that the govt told them to turn everyone down to stop people panicking.

I had this flu. After 2 days of high fever and pain, I survived.

Holy shit it's the flu which had lower death rate than normal flu again. It's only a problem if you don't live in a country with solid healthcare or common sense.

I had this for around a week, Stayed home from school and played video-games. For a week. Wasn't a severe case really, kind of felt weird and that was it. Originally the doctor didn't say I had it until he actually ran a test.

I'm willing to go out on a limb and say that regular flu killed a lot more. Of course, if this turns out into a fullblown outbreak it's not going to be nice.

Aaaaand here comes an excuse for France's corrupt government to buy shitload of vaccines from their pharmaceutical friends and use less than half of them. I had swine flu, it was horrible, but it only lasted a few days and I'm fine.

Well on the bright side, since school is about to go onto summer for nearly everywhere, infection will be slowed substantially.

[QUOTE=barttool;40796051]what are you even trying to argue?[/QUOTE] Don't bother I don't think he has a clue.

It's not even cancer what are you whining about!" all people are worth the same, and therefore they all deserve to be healthy, not ones more than others.

all variants of the flu can kill you they only test DEAD people for this strain of the flu for all we know thousands of people had the ah1n1 flu, thought it was the regular flu, and got better. this is almost sensationalist fear mongering

Madagascar has closed its borders.

dont worry in less than a week fox news will tell us to panic

I remember H1N1 just having a high infection rate, lets just hope whatever this is it'll be that at most.

I had it. Big deal.

I had it during the Left 4 Dead 2 Demo Best sick week ever (If you rule out the fact that I was vomiting the whole time and that it was the SWINE FLU fer chrissakes)

I know that it's not a big deal, but this kind of shit makes me paranoid as fuck.

Wait is this the flu strain that was caused by that Mexican who put his dick in a pig's ass?

Swine flu was waaaay over dramaticized on the media.

Don't we have vaccines for this?

Shh, it gives people autism, remember?

He is indeed very right that the problem with this flu only persists in underdeveloped countries and doesn't even pose a more real threat than the normal flu.
