Given the expenses scandal I would have expected plenty of MPs to get it...............................I'll get my coat........

 

[Pavilionaire]

I don't know about anyone else but for the first time this week work colleagues and friends of friends are coming down with suspected swine flu, there's 9 confirmed cases in the small town I work in and it's become a reality.

Exactly. It certainly looks like we're all likely to catch it: & sooner - rather than later. Gawd help us if the bleatings of 'Man Flu' sufferers are anything to go by.

My wife had it last week - both my kids and i have been ok so far. Really is luck of the draw (though i'm unsure of the incubation period)

 

[severnside gull]

my missus has it (suspected anyway) and as she is on the high risk list she had a home visit and was given tammi-flu yesterday...they wouldn't let her go to the surgery even if she could have got there!

I haven't even got a sniff of a cold.

Apparently the tablets just shorten the life of the virus which gives it less time to do damage to other pre-existing conditions.

 

[Papa Lazarou]

Funny you should mention not even having a sniff of a cold, Severnside Gull, I've not had a cold for months now... which is unusual. Perhaps all the precautions I've been taking to not catch Swine Flu are having a positive effect.

I shall dance on her grave etc etc etc and other assorted comments usually attributed to Thatcher.

 

[Arthur]

She also has a f***ing huge mouth......unlucky bitch!

 

[Man of Harveys]

Everyone's got swine flu: Ricky Ponting, TLO, Tiger Woods, Lady Gaga, Peter Jones and ALL the nazi mods.

 

[ROSM]

She also has a f***ing huge mouth......unlucky bitch!

or a little head?

Now then, I'm not a fan of the Blairs by a long chalk but there is a big difference between the wife of a PM and a PM. No ?

 

[desprateseagull]

is swine flu the new M.E..? its not good enough to just be 'ill' now.. pigs/birds/whatever need to be involved.


max moseley should be ok though.. as no leather was harmed during the making of his NON nazi pseudo torture treats..

 

[Wardy]

Two people from one office where I work have it, or lease one does and one thinks they do.

And its Cherie Blair......wife of former MP
She's got far the biggest gob...the world has ever seen

 

[adrian29uk]

Back in April a lot of people said this is just media hype and it will go away like the bird flu did. Roll on 3 months, I think we have quite a serious situation on our hands here.

Small hats?

Not only a big gob but a RECTANGLE one. She looks like a post box.

Not really, it's not dangerous and more people are dying of normal flu. It's a highly contagious but pretty mild virus.

That's only partly correct. The last flu pandemic (2000/2001) killed 21,000 - a normal year will kill about 6,500. Swine flu is expected to kill anywhere between 15,000 and 65,000 - no-one can be sure.

It's certainly not about to wipe out half the population but it is a significant virus. And the main difference is that swine flu is more likely to account for young adults as opposed to the elderly and the very young.
