Interesting stuff. Did you hear that there’s a new strain which is resistant to the anti-flu drugs? Tamiflu etc? Found a really good website for tracking it’s progress, seems to be updated every hour or so… http://www.swinefludeaths.co.uk.

Major Tom here. Argentina actually IS a different planet. Not my words, but our newest alien acquisition’s, the health minister. Check it our for yourself: http://www.nytimes.com/2009/07/04/world/americas/04argentina.html?ref=world

Man, this is what you get when you try to spook Stuart Heritage with the swine flu virus. I guess there is some truth in what you say. I don’t trust white coats and their needles either.
What I do know is that in my province alone, 18 people have already died so far. 12 of these who were not as lucky as Rupert Grint, had prior medical conditions, but the rest didn’t and they were young and healthy, including a couple of pregnant women. It’s pretty harsh, I think.

Julias -

>However, here in Argentina, there are already 100.000 people who are infected with the swine flu virus

The World Health organization (as of this very day) reports 2,485 confirmed cases of H1N1 infection in Argentina, Planet Earth.

Give my sympathy to the alien inhabitants of your own Argentina on the planet Wazzock, or wherever it is. Isn’t it a funny coincidence that two different planets would nevertheless have a place on them called “Argentina”!

Cheers,

swine flu is NOT particularly virulent amoung the young and healthy. almost every death has been in those with serious underlying medical conditions – meaning this: if you have a heart attack and die and they test you after death for carrying swine flu (even though you had no symptoms and were just a carrier) they put your death in the swine flu column. its hype and priming for vaccine uptake in the fall. Yes come august and september, I will be running for my life from those in white coats with needles.

Yeah, well, very funny, we all agree Rupert Grint is an ass. However, here in Argentina, there are already 100.000 people who are infected with the swine flu virus and, according to official numbers (meaning, there are a lot more)60 people have died in the past month. Apparently, it is particularly virulent among the otherwise healthy 20 to 50 years old population.
So, come August or September, you’d better start running and hiding, Stuart Heritage, running and hiding!
