Of course it's overhyped. Look at the cases in the US, they're pretty much the same as the normal flu cases and are more mild. The reason is simple, the more you go north, the more the people are immunised against the flu, so it kinda brings some immunisation to the swine flu. I heard some people here in the Canadian maritimes came in contact with that flu, but they're not even sick!

So where are the zombies again? *grabs shotgun*

Does this really need it's own topic. Only a few people died, more die of the common cold every year in America alone...

apparently the49ronin/brainac68 heard the tornado sirens today (he lives in the same city as me or near enough to it) and looked online, apparently there is are 2 confirmed cases here in milwaukee, one child one adult. i'm hoping i get it so i can infect people in the mall where i work.

Oh my GOD! Swine flu is spread by tornadoes now! :ohnoes:

Spanish influenza, in 1918, killed upwards of 50 million people. The symptoms are pretty much the same, only a bit less severe at this point.

 

1918 Medicine is not that advance as it is now. I'm confident that by the end May we will have a Vaccine and this will die down. Just like Bird Flu, Mad Cow Disease, etc.

 

 

 

For all the hypochondriacs who think they have swineflu here is a test.

[cabbage], according to that site i have it and i should panic. i'll have a fun day at work tomorrow at least, coughing on all the sunglasses and stuff though.

Someone in my county has an unconfirmed case of swine flu now.

There was a Swine Flu outbreak 33 years ago, only killed 1 man, and infact the vaccine caused more damage then the virus.

So now c[_] my care cup is empty.

Same here. :wall: And I guess there's 6 other possible cases in Washington State.

I just learned that some on in houston died from it.....I live 40 miles north of houston. yikes!

Two confirmed in London! NOOO! How fast it would spread in London would be un-believable, especially on the tubes! Also, one of my friends all of the sudden had the majority of the major symptoms of swine flu (his been off nearly all this week), but I don't understand how he could get it at this early stage?

 

 

 

Does anyone think that we will reach phase 6?

!

 

3 cases in Maine.

 

 

 

Joy. -.-

2 confirmed cases here in Massachusetts, and there was a rumor that a freshmen in my school has been sick with flu like symptoms for a couple days.

 

Also, my sister has some flu symptoms and it's making my mom freak out.

 

 

 

EDIT: Just saw that the girl who is rumored to have the flu uploaded a new photo album to Facebook, the name? Mexico '09.

 

:wall:

Congratulations on making a completely clueless post.

if it goes up to a level six i get ten days off school.

 

if this turns into a pandemic. I'm [bleep]ed, I catch EVERYTHING. >.<

Too many rumors today at school.

 

 

 

I heard it's airborne now!

 

I heard it's resistant to medicine now!

 

I heard it closes your throat!

 

I herd it lieks mudkipz!

 

 

 

Misinformation ftl.

I think i might have it too, but thats what everyone might think when they feel unwell during this time, the NHS website sysptoms checker match alot of mine, I feel very lethargic, hot, fever-y, and anothing thing which is unpleasent, lets just say vomiting backwards.

 

 

 

Although, i think this is just one big overreaction, it was the same with birdflu, everyone went mad and then it died out and was forgotten. I think it could be something their overreacting on purpose to distract everyone from financial problems.

"Worst case scenario, the vast majority of humanity dies.

 

 

 

I really don't see what we're all worrying about."

 

 

 

Yes, my teacher actually said that today :lol: Ireland's first confirmed case of it was announced today, the infected recently returned from a holiday in Mexico and currently is in isolation, they're taking it very seriously.

 

 

 

Slightly Ot but heard this on the radio yesterday

 

[hide=Stupidity of Irish politicians]Radio presenter: Well has the government any way of dealing with this problem Mrs. Harney

 

Mrs. Harney (Politician): Yes, we've been preparing for an outbreak similiar to this for a long time, we've currently many implantations to deal with such a scenario, we're currently testing 3 possible reports of the case

 

RP: Well when can we expect the results? They've been tested since yesterday morning

 

Mrs H: We can't expect them till tomorrow, they're currently being tested on mainland Europe

 

/facepalm throughout Ireland, thought we were prepared for this? :roll:[/hide]

We talked about this in our science class today. Then the science teacher sneezed and me and my friends started freaking out yelling "OH MY GOD HE HAS THE SWINE FLU RUN FOR YOUR LIVES WE'RE ALL GONNA DIE."

 

 

 

No one really takes that class seriously.

I'm interested to see what happens but annoyed with all hype from the media and public.

They finally got bored with Obama and the economy.

It's not even a deadly flu strain.

 

Couple suspected cases in my immediate area but nothing confirmed.
