H1N1 (Swine Flu) is back are you prepared?

Lando Griffin

Not to scare monger but the deadly highly contagious H1N1 bird-flu virus is back.
This global pandemic has all ready caused the death of one lady in Canada.

"“Uncontrollable, catastrophic risks”

I didn't sleep all night worrying about it as I feel a bit fluey myself so pray to God I don't get it.

Will the Government provide us with jabs again this time?

Could this have mutated into some super bird flu virus?

How many millions will die?

Lol, they can vaccinate all they want against H1N1, it won't do any good since the guy died from the H5N1 strain.

I'm not a bird, neither the winged nor the vajayjay bearing kind, so should be okay

this isnt a pandemic!

the pig one was, h1n5 was it called?

however this hasnt managed to become highly contagious. If it did it would have spread as quick as the pig one did.

Worth opening the thread just for that line.

A little help from the anti-vaccination crowd, no doubt.

Read the article :

"But the hard part will be persuading people to be inoculated. Not even past threats of a full-blown pandemic have been enough to convince the majority of Canadians to get a flu shot.
“Uncontrollable, catastrophic risks” scare people the most, says Dr. Kumanan Wilson, a senior scientist at the Ottawa Hospital Research Institute.
“When you create the image of flu in your head, you don’t think of it as a catastrophic illness.”

Kumann is not applying "Uncontrollable, catastrophic risks" to the ourbreak in Canada

I've got my iodine tablet knocking about in my "stuff drawer" somewhere, so I'm sorted.

My Sons birth coincided with the swine flu outbreak in the Rotunda... the night he was born I was put into a big empty ward and the nurse came down to check on us wearing a disease mask.

That'll fairly put the shíts up ya.

I remember the big fuss over that a few years ago. Never seemed to bother me, and still doesn't.

Typical scaremongering from the media again, I wonder which Pharmaceutical company will profit big this time around.

Well, I'm sure the 'correlation does not equal causation' crowd will gladly set them right.

Pure scaremongering from weather.com:

The calendar says 2014, but health officials and flu victims might feel like it’s 2009 all over again. The H1N1 flu strain — which was responsible for the 2009 swine flu pandemic — has dominated this season’s flu scene, according to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

“[Usually] the most common problem from the flu isn’t the virus itself, but the bacteria and pneumonia that the virus sets you up for,” Bruce Hirsch, M.D., an infectious disease specialist at North Shore Long Island Jewish Hospital in New York, told weather.com. “(But) this season — unlike few others — we’re seeing this H1N1 flu cause viral pneumonia in and of itself and causing an occasionally fatal flu in young adults who would not be otherwise vulnerable."

“H1N1 seems to be a character — a bad actor — and causing more problems [than other flu strains],” said Dr. Hirsch. “So far the outbreak of this flu season seem to me, as an infectious disease practitioner, to be more dramatic and more severe. It seems to be a little bit of an explosive onset, and what I’ve seen in my patients is a few cases trickling in and then boom! It’s much more common.”

Late last month, health officials in Texas confirmed that the H1N1 flu killed six people. Officials expressed some concern because this year’s flu vaccine is designed to help prevent H1N1 cases.

Texas isn’t the only state dealing with H1N1 cases. Here are some of the states battling the swine flu:

Michigan. Swine flu has killed three adults, and infected about a dozen more child and adults. These patients remain on life support, according to The Detroit Free Press.
California. Last week, Santa Clara Health Department officials reported the state’s first flu death of the season. The victim tested positive for the H1N1 strain, and other counties have also reported positive tests for the virus. In addition to seven cases in Santa Clara County, Marin County and Contra Costa County have reported several cases of swine flu, according to NBC Bay Area.
Oregon. Health officials confirmed two deaths from H1N1 flu, and another 81 hospitalizations, according to King 5 News.
Utah. Utah officials warn that swine flu is on the rise, and could be responsible for the first two flu deaths reported last week, according to The Salt Lake Tribune.
North Carolina. The flu has killed 13 people in North Carolina, according to USA Today.
The CDC reports that the flu is now widespread in more than half of the country, with many states reporting severe outbreaks. As of the last weekly flu advisory report, widespread activity has been reported in Alabama, Alaska, Arkansas, Colorado, Connecticut, Georgia, Idaho, Illinois, Indiana, Kansas, Louisiana, Massachusetts, Minnesota, Nebraska, Nevada, New York, North Carolina, Oklahoma, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Texas, Utah, Virginia, Washington state and Wyoming.

Now just hold on an organic corn fed minute, is this cock spreading lies and deliberately sending everyone into a flutter? He is making an announcment to the world tonight on the nine o'clock news and we're all waiting with basted breath.

Healthcare has certainly improved immeasurably since WW1, and I'm sure being stuck in a smelly trench didn't help matters, but sooner or later something like the Spanish flu is going to roll around again and kill a whole load of people.

Probably including asthmatic me.

In the mean time get your bloody seasonal flu jabs. It reduces the number of things that can kill you.

I read a bwawk on how to deal with people like this, we'll have to get cracking and come up with a good plan soon. If we leave it too long no one will give a cluck.

H1N1 is "swine" Flu - Not bird flu.

Tzardine

Bird flu has been created by the Irish government and the Illuminati in order to kidnap the children or Ireland and put them into state controlled slavery camps. Its all written in statute.*
