This Swine Flu.

[Mr Pumpy]

Anybody concerned about it????
should we be concerned about it????

[thered]

no


not really just dont go to mexico or eat fajitas

[aftermath]

4 in 10 in the UK will contract it according to experts if there is an epidemic. So it could be worrying.

We here this sort of thing every now and then .

Mate of mine is going to Mexico in 6 weeks time, its not putting him off, and he even got a letter from Thomas Cook saying he can change it.

[thered]

wasnt so long ago we were all getting bird flu what happened


flu is the flu its killed around 100 people in mexico city which holds around 20,000,000 people packed like sardines 0.003% or sumoething like it i wont be worrid our own flu kills more in this country mainly old people though and when its cold

paul robinson and heurlio gomes should not worry they couldnt catch a cold i too wont be losing any sleep

[Mr Pumpy]

The media can deffo hype it all up can't they. As Red said, last year it was bird flu and what became of that?

But.... when all said and done, yer can't beat mother nature and nature will always be able to adapt to owt we can throw at it.

[gmb45]

i think the missus has got swine flu.

[Jaffa]

At least it gives the conspiracy theorists something to harp on about, the net is bubbling with conspiracy theories about this.....some are class, from Obama trying to get polocies through to Brown using it to take the bad look off Labour, then theirs the one that it is man made and being used to prune the population and another is that the Pharmacutecal companies started it to sell their cures for it.

Get your tin hat on and read some of them they are great for a laugh.

[Mr Pumpy]

Ive heard yer can get some oinkment for this swine flu anyway.

[westkill]

any cheap flights to mexico yet lol

[Mr Pumpy]

any cheap flights to mexico yet lol

Mines been cancelled, im pig sick.

[forntida]

It has been started to bring the unemployment queues down. It only affects the 20 to 40 age range. That would suggest to me that people who caught the flu in the 1957 epidemic are more or less immune.

Nobody other than me has said this so after this post has been read it will be tomorrows headlines.:roflmao:

[thered]

i seem to be coming out in a rash.......er

[westkill]

i rasher of swine flu lol

Too many of us on the planet anyway Nature has to kill us off a bit from time to time....Shame all these infections are always given a Animal referance in there name .....Not the Mexacian Idiot who spreed it or was mucking around with his little piggies in the first place......

This Sh*t Is Crazy

[Amonhotep]

All, been away for a while on business, but people die annually from "normal" flu. The media didn't raise a flag for the nearly 500k that died last year. I think if concentrated numbers people started dying then I would worry. My two pence to help make the pound.

normal flu don't make the headlines because it doesn't sound interesting enough. its got to be space flu or bird flu or orangutan flu or turn your face inside out flu

[sandiemag]

looks like another ploy by the government to hide some more bad news.

MY MISSUS WONT FILL THE CAR UP SHE`S FRIGHTENED OF SWINE FLU I TOLD HER ITS IN MEXICO NOT TEXACO

[pussyca]

Jaffa
She had a big nose if that counts!! But the icing on the cake is she too is devorcing him now so ' what goes around comes around' ....
Just seen the news regarding the swine flu and it reads like the Eurovision song contest scoring: Germany 1, Norway 2, Canada 13, Nederlands 1. The only difference is UK 5, so really that's nothing like the Euro contest as we always get Nill Points !

obviously the guy is a pure asshole and is getting what he deserves.

[Mr Pumpy]

Wonder what they give the pigs when they get flu????

Maybe the farmers tuck em in bed with a hot water bottle and mop their heads with a damp cloth.

Bless em.

i just rang the NHS help desk about this swine flu. All I could hear was crackling!!??

[Mr Pumpy]

By the looks of it this swine flu has been blown out of all proportion, last week on the news and in the papers you'd have thought the world was about to end.

[lfc4life]

well thats the media for you :(

[caveman_nige]

is this where swine flu came from?

Swine Flu hits Sunderland

I hear 60,000 Newcastle fans went down too.:D



At a briefing on Tuesday, Scottish Health Secretary Nicola Sturgeon said 23 new confirmed cases of swine flu had been confirmed in Scotland in the past 24 hours.

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/scotland/glasgow_and_west/8079598.stm

Most of the above are all Rangers supporters who were on the same bus to Dundee.

[Lainie]

hmmm no comment :D

Typical Scotland. Look at us, we have more swine flu cases than you have.:D

I will not sleep tonight with the knowledge that Yorkshire Man is on his way up here. Then again the Johnnie Walker bottling plant is about a mile from my home. He won't get past that.:cheers:

[Lainie]

wonder if we will get sent home from work?? must try 2moz lol

[forntida]

Has anyone tried the new vaccine yet. Mr Brown is proud that England is the first country in the world to try out the vaccine on 'his' subjects. Is anyone willing to be a guinea pig?

It would appear that anyone who caught the 1957 Asian flu are 'reasonably' immune to this strain of the virus. So it would appear that Zap(maybe) and I could be safe.http://filesharingtalk.com/vb3/images/smilies/whistling.gif

im a bit worried about all this, i plan to fly to london in sept then after a few days on to miami, im surprised the usa has not stopped visitors from the uk, or if they have plans to do so in the near future. im a bit out of touch here as to whats going on so if anyone has any news in the future please pm me or post. its just my luck if it all ends up a cluster fcuk http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v676/Synnabun/EMOTICONS/suicideuf2.gif

I think if there's gonna be restrictions it'll effect people going on their hols next year.


Changing the subject a bit. When we was in London there was no end of people walking about with surgical masks on, mostly on the Tube and being worn mostly by our oriental friends.

if you have ever been to Japan you will see thousands walking around with the masks on, even when they get a cold, its to stop spreading their disease, maybe we should take a lesson from them on this..

[Mr Pumpy]

Thats explains it a bit then.
Everyday on the tube there were folks with surgical masks on (oriental), also in crowded places.
It looked daft but maybe we'll start seeing it more often as time goes by??

[caveman_nige]

at my work they have handed out bottles of anti-bacterial soap (the stuff that you do not need water with) and dotted them all around, three of my colleagues are off sick with this swine flu. We have notices everywhere about hygene etc,,, yet one of the managers who brushes his teeth every hour or so and thinks he is the healthiest man alive has a habit of going for a dump and walking straight back to his desk without stopping to wash his hands... Some of my colleagues are openly starting to talk about wearing these facemask things, i know the government don't want people to panic but surely if we all started wearing them then it would stop/slow the spread, they will be cheaper to issue than medicine and a nurse to administer it..

It must have some benefits although anybody seen wearing one will loose cool points at the pub and stand no chance of getting their hands down some lgirl's calvin kleins. I think we will start to see more people wearing them as this thing begins to effect every street in our land... I have a ~~~~ed immune system so will be considering this option myself should it get as bad as they doom sayers are predicting... I do not wanna cath it and bring it home to my family...

Each to their own i say, I wonder how attitudes will change as winter sets in and this flu spreads.... don't be afraid of looking the fool if you are worried...

[janobi]

lmao. I am currently working for the Pandemic flu thing, so all questions can be aimed at me if you wish.

Yeah Japan with the face masks thing is mad. Seen it whilst I was there, but would never catch on here, as people are just rude and ignorant, and would rather sneeze or cough on you.

[Mr Pumpy]

Good post Nige.

I think the antibacterial hand wash is a common sense type of idea that should work well in the office environment like your nige.
But...I still think we have to remember that for most people getting this flu is no different from getting any other flu. The common a garden flu unfortunately kills hundreds of people every year.

But by far the most important part of your post nige was the fact that instead of doing your work, you seem intent on watching people go to the sh1tter.
Now in my book your not only slacking in your work but youve got some kind of toilet fetish. Perhaps you should be less concerned about what this manager does in the bog and more concerned about your work output.



That is all... :laugh::laugh:

[Bulld0g]

We have been issued with these too. A really good idea although i must say i can smell the alcohol in it an i just wanna drink it :roflmao:
Upto now i have resisted temptation ;)
