Swine Flu - Page 17

With everything I have seen about this flu I do not think it is going to be a bad as people are thinking. I have been exposed to the N1H1 three times that I know of. My family has been exposed and so far none of us have gotten sick. Most of the people I hear dying from the N1H1 are those who are at risk to the normal flu. I think people are panicking over nothing.

I concur I think it will hit the weak but the rest should be ok. Just wash up and keep hands out of the eyes. I only worry on my youngest as he has a hard time with meds and is a poor eater of fruit and veggies.

Yes and eat clean dirt daily to keep your immune system up and strong .

Child's death a flu mystery

Alitza Ortiz Sanchez didn't have a high fever, cough, runny nose or sore throat. That's why her parents, who live in Otay Mesa, didn't suspect swine flu when they first brought their sick 5-year-old daughter to a physician on the morning of Oct. 8. Ref. Source 5

H1N1 flu kills 5 more Utahns

The Utah Department of Health's newest report, released Wednesday, shows eight total deaths associated with the H1N1 virus since Sept. 1 - five more than the department reported a week ago. It also reported that 274 people have been hospitalized after contracting either H1N1 or the seasonal flu - more than double the 127 reported to date last week. Ref. Source 8

Yes we all know that October thru most of the winter is flu season. I think it is interesting that hospitals will report deaths by the H1N1 flu but the number of sick people have either H1N1 or the seasonal flu. I wonder how many have died from just the seasonal flu or are they blaming all deaths on the H1N1 only to make it look worse than it really is.

That is what gets me. In the years past it did not matter if you went to work sick even if you had the flu. I believe that people are still making way too much about the H1N1 than needs to be. Now places are saying if you come to work sick you will be fired. Does this include the common cold? What if you get sick at work? Are you going to be fired because you became ill and may have contaminated others?
