Thanks to my chemistry teacher, I'm prepared with knowledge to fight the flu =D

It's not swine flu, but human swine flu: the virus has mutated from harmless to pig viruses to ones that can affect humans and are like a combination or something of avian flu, and many types of swine flu. (African/European/Asian, if i remember correct from what my chem teacher told me lol) The virus likes colder weather, so where I live it won't be too much of a hassel. (Mexico City is a bit crisp still, along with New York so the virus is pretty happy lol :/) Should subside in the summer, but it's probably a RNA mutation virus, which means it will keep changing, and any vaccination that could be made from now on might be rendered somewhat ineffective.

And if you get any flu symptoms, go to your doctor immediately and get tested, as the two medicines (pretty sure it's two) will only work against the viruses to weaken the symptoms within the first 48 hours.

O well, no cases in my area, but o wait, I'm going to New York for a school trip in a week. Anyways, everyone's sick in Quebec, but it's not flu.

btw, what is it exactly?

**Oni-Paranoia** · 04-28-2009, 05:07 PM

No one knows what it does, 64 cases are confirmed in US and 2 kids 3 cities away from my city are being tested...

Deaths are likely, stay safe... Fu*king mexico >.>

Correct me if I'm wrong, but according to the local news, the flu is hitting major cities, yet the place people would expect it is farming areas such as the mid-west. Kinda ironic...

My city has it.. I drove by the kids house.. about a mile radius from my house, all the news vanes were there. Schools might shutdown soon were I'm at..

Bangcrashboom · 04-28-2009, 08:43 PM

I think this is the way the pigs are trying to get back at us and revolt against the humans. A whole revolution, kind of like animal farm but with a flu -.-

Since it's more likely the strand of virus spreading is that of a human to human form and not pig to human, so the denser the population, the higher the risk.

There's already been a couple of cases in Nova Scotia here in Canada, I live in New Brunswick (right above it). I'm not worried, sickness comes and goes like the weather here, plus the cases were mild.

Personally I'm not worried, it's like every other "pandemic" the passed couple of decades, since it's affecting our population chances of our scientists working together for a cure are higher if the dangers increase, much like the SARS incident. Really it's all a media scare for better press and views, I say sit back and wait it through like, SARS, Avian and West Nile.

Also for those that have or know people that have Swine Flu, I wish you the speediest recovery.

**A2P** · 04-28-2009, 09:04 PM

Relax. We survived SARS didn't we? AIDS is floating about to this day, yet people still **** like rabbits.

Nothing's going to happen.
