swine flu

it's the new boogey man. iggy:

 

Panic!!!!!

 

I got a touch of the bastard cough.

 

I AM PANICKING!! I AM!! :willy_nilly::willy_nilly::willy_nilly:

 

Always with the farm animals...bird flu, mad cow disease (Oprah syndrome), swine flu, hoof and mouth disease! It's time to move onto exotic animals, yo.

 

what, like elephantitis ?

 

With the obesity rate in the U.S. rising to near epidemic proportions, swine flu (swine influenza) a respiratory disease of pigs, will become more commonplace

Hotwater

 

you have no idea.. i was just browsing a board that had 11 outta 25 of the active threads on the subject..

In all honesty,i think all the hype may be warranted.this is the wrong time of year for the flu and with 68 deaths in mexico already from it, awareness and precautions may very well be in order for anyone already in poor health or with a poor immune system.

that being said,to tie this into martial law being declared as was the topic of one thread on the other board is past panic and just plain stupid lol..

 

Everything will be O.K.

Don't like... hang around slaughter houses for a while if you're really worried.

 

It will all be ok, until it's not ok, and we really do wipe out the entire race with some freak virus born in a filthy industrial slaughterhouse or farm or whatever in mexico or tenessee or bangladesh or whereever.

I personally think it is stupid to:

1) panic

2) laugh at people panicking

I think the only sensible thing to do is simply wait until more data arives about its lethality and epidemiology. Until then it is simply something to keep an eye on and act accordingly to.

 

I'm waiting for turtle flu before I get really worried.

 

I just heard about this today.. weird.. oh well I can't eat pork anyways cuz it fucks with my gall bladder.. still it sucks so many people have died..

 

Don't get injected with pork heparin any time soon.

In all seriousness, I'm sooo tired of these things. What happened to SARS and anthrax? THAT was kinda scary......

 

i thought you could only get swine flu if you had unprotected sex with a pig...

 

I thought that was AIDS, and monkeys?

 

yes.. you get aids from humpin' monkeys bareback.

 

i have the cure for swine flu...its call swine-fu HEYYAAAHHHH!!!!

 

I HAZ IT AND ITS 2 weeks old now,
Fractured my ribs, from coughing that my have been bruised from exercise..
pain was so bad in my neck, back yesterday I went back to another hospital..

 

mexico's president has made himself into a super hero and is rounding up all the sickos.

iggy:iggy:

 

Tell me about it.

I was in Mexico for a week before I came back to the USA.

So I am kind of Paranoid.
