A fun development is that the government is about to introduce an online triage system; answer a few simple questions correctly and get a voucher code that entitles your "Swine flu buddy" to visit the drop-in centre and pick up some Tamiflu - while you're at it, rerun the app a few times and win a few doses . . . just in case  Any guesses as to how soon the government will realise that they've run out of Tamiflu and it starts appearing on ebay?

It isn't going to do them much good putting it on eBay if it's available for free. Unless of course you can get addicted to Tamiflu - in which case anything is fair game. In fact, eBay banned sale of the stuff a few years back but I'm not sure if that ban still applies.
Still won't stop people panicking and trying to hoard the stuff, and knowing the usual crowd mentality there could even be riots if there's any sign of a shortage. :/ |

We have an annual flu jab at work and I've done so for the last few years.. I'm wondering if it's worth it this year as it may actually be detrimental to any sf immunity.

 Antibacterial wash at every entrance and exit, wipes for the desks and pcs and tissues for the sneezes. Think the 2 week thing was agreed early last week - so open to abuse!

LD I wouldn't worry, you can't stay in just incase as thats just not healthy for you and will drive you mad.
I still have a banging head and slightly high temp, had a rest in bed and slept for a bit feel bit better. Been about 4days of headaches now,might go doctors tomorrow just to make sure all is ok. Josh is poorly and sleepy and has head ache so I think we have just got that virus that just gives you high temp and head aches, I have had it loads of times in the past, well something like it, you know what I mean!!!

As for that poor little girl of 6 it would seem she had a septic infection owing to tonsilitus. So yet again the facts are skewed and swine flu was not the root cause but a contributing factor. Still awful though and my heart goes out to all those that have lost or are suffering trouled times. However lets not be silly here it's flu. Nothing more.
