^I wanted you to post it because no one respects me.
This whole swine flu thing is such a joke and people are buying into it.
YOUāVE BEEN PUNKED USA!
Deadly second wave
The second wave of the 1918 pandemic was much deadlier than the first. During the first wave, which began in early March, the epidemic resembled typical flu epidemics. Those at the most risk were the sick and elderly, and younger, healthier people recovered easily. But in August, when the second wave began in France, Sierra Leone and the United States,[40] the virus had mutated to a much more deadly form.
Itās highly contagious, the same strain as the Spanish flu that killed 5% of the planet, and the spanish flue started out relatively harmless.
Iām not sold, but Iāll consider getting a vaccine.
Not saying we should all run and hide, just playing devilās advocate.
Swine flu is one mutation away from deadly epidemic. :ohnoes:
Iād get a vaccine if it were available, same with regular flu.
I get a flu shot every yearā¦
Except last year, which I ended up getting the flu. lol :\
I never got sick from a flu shotā¦
But I do understand an undeveloped shot is different.
Meh.
Iād still get it.
I donāt ever want to have to get it, but am not liking the government telling us the we have to get it. Get the shot or get fired is bullshit.
Hoping this gets stopped before it goes any further.
Well they donāt want people to catch it, then spread it to patients or whomever they are in contact with.
Logical I think, tbh.
My company has the following policy in place (and ask this of every visitor AFAIK):
Does the following currently apply to you?
⢠Fever (greater than 38°C/100.4°F) and any of the following: headache, muscle aches, fatigue, sore throat and congestion.
If the answer to the above is YES:
You have developed symptoms of influenza - You may have had exposure to H1N1 influenza virus. We are directing you remain off the <Company Name> site for 24 hours after your fever is gone.
Citigroup says to stay home if you are sick, our days are no longer sick days, they are unplanned time, and you can take them without giving a reason.
Nothing about having to get a shot here at Fedex, but there is a very strict policy of no children allowed in the building at all right now.
I havenāt had a flu shot in years.
