sad isnt it. my mum has been coughing etc for a week. ive asked and asked her to go to the docs but she wont go. she invidulates at school exams and has just finished a 6 week long stint. there are a few schools in the paisley area affected and pupils have been sent home (not the high school she works in mind) and she still wont listen. i will be on the phone to her first thing tomorrow morning.sigpic

Looks like it could be the start
Hope not but i think it is
THE TRUTH
The Hillsborough Independent Panel. 12/09/12
Today's report is black and white.The Liverpool fans were not the cause of the disaster.
The panel has quite simply found 'no evidence' in support of allegations of 'exceptional levels of drunkenness, ticketlessness or violence among Liverpool fans' and 'no evidence that fans had conspired to arrive late at the stadium' and 'no evidence that they stole from the dead and dying'.Comment

blimey i thought only the yanks did that....

me too... and crazy yanks at that.. when respected professionals like senior docs and consultants do it, it shows how serious a 'pandemic' is..
ops has a good stash of 24hr military ration packs (3 weeks worth) and a battery operated transistor radio should the shit hit the fan

Thats really sad
Someone told me the biggest 'at risk' age group is between 35 - 48 has anyone else heard this ?Comment
-
biggest risk is to anyone who has other medial problems.. swine flu if caught will catch out people who have a weakened immune system.. those currently ill or weak..
if your fighting fit swine flu will not kill you... but if it mixes and mutates with other flu strains it will pose a bigger threat to those classed as 'well'Comment

how have the media hyped it up..??
she died of swine flu.. nobody has said 'we are all doomed'..
she had previously given birth which weakens the body and its defences.. swine flu is a big risk to those already ill or who have weakend immune systems..
nearly all swine flu deaths accross the globe have happened to people who are already ill..
in the same way MRSA kills those who are very ill in hospital..
the body is weak from infection or exhaustion and therefore cant defend against another attack..
hunderds of people die from other strains of flu every year..
also i hardly call it 'hype' when the WHO classes it as a pandemic.. the first for 40 years..
swine flu was pandemic in 1918 also..
also 'media hyping it up' is a comment.. so 'no comment' makes no sense, unless its on its own.. which it wasnt
under your username where it says 'sports nutter' you should ask for it to be changed to 'ill informed'
