    gawd, I hate those QashQows blocking the road while they stop to let the kids out and have a quick chat with Doreen from the Parents Association through the window.

    And its spreading fast. I know 3 people(adults) who have suspected symptoms who have never been abroad and caught it off people already in the country, doctors are refusing to see low risk people(the general populace) and will only see the high risk ones. Over the counter meds treat it.

    Its like regular flu though, not even that. Regular flu will knock you out, this swine flu only affects you for a couple of days and is not even strong, its a wuss in comparison!! ;)

    But its symptoms are the same as normal flu, so it's just as likely to be that.

    Is anyone else sick to bloody high heaven of fcuking Swine Flu threads?

    Yes, same symptoms, less effect. Normal flu will put you in bed for a few days, swine flu does not.

    Would actually be annoyed if it started late tbh. Would prefer to actually be working for sixth year. Bloody fear mongering is annoying.

    All you can do it stock up on non prescription meds and top up yourself with multivitamins, eat well and keep away from those you know have it.

    More people will die on our roads between now and monday morning than will die from Swine Flu between now and the next month in Ireland, why don't they ban people from driving cars if they wan't to save a couple of lives.
