    Its bad enough that there are soccer games in Mexico that they are not allowing fans to attended.

    think how bad it would have to be here in the us for a football game to have empty seats...

    I had all the symptoms of swine flu last week, so I did the natural thing and took a weekend night off from going to the bars and Im still here. The symptoms are so broad that you could go to the doctors with a massive hangover and tell them you think you have swine flu and they'd lock down the city.

They say its worse on kids....There has been ALOT of people in Mexico die from it. Over like 40 confirmed cases in the USA...Ya it might not be "that big of deal" but you never know....all the people crossing the borders..I dunno bout you guys but I LOVE my health!

    The basic flu that WE as the United States of America get a shot for each "flu season". Last year there was over 34,000 deaths JUST over the BASIC FLU! So here is a flu that they have NO cure for..and your not worried?!?!?!?!?!

    its not truly swine flu and they are sending the message to not label it as swine flu.

    Its a super virus, they knew about em years ago, we all did, survival of the fittest. wernt all the victims mexican nationals? one kid in america died but was not a US resident, 160 died in mexico, no deaths here and doesnt look there will be any, anytime soon.

    Its an economy booster. Dont believe the media.

    They have no cure for any flu. They have a vaccine that will protect against a handful of strains and they try to predict it, they get it wrong A LOT. Swine Flu is like any other flu, only difference is we haven't been exposed to it for centuries so we have no natural immunity to it. BUT, Tamiflu and other antivirals are working on it wonderfully. So if you feel sick, spike a fever, have body aches(your typical flu-like symptoms) go to the doctor. They'll swab your nose, if you have Influenza-A they'll culture it and you'll be under quaruntine and put on Tamiflu.

    It's no big deal. We have more than enough antivirals to treat a big outbreak. Those most likely to be affected are the elderly and the very young.

    You need to remember there less than a hundred CONFIRMED cases of Swine flu in mexico, the rest is assumed. And on top of that, there are only 7 confirmed deaths related to swine flu. The media likes to change things and warp them. Only 7 swine flu deaths, not 152, says WHO | smh.com.au

    This flu has a LONG way to go before it's as bad as what we see normally every year. But hey, I'm looking forward to the histeria. It'll hopefully shut down my workplace and I'll get some extra time off :P
