in Canada, there is only 1 major case which a five year old has it Sad

Oh, in UK there is no major cases, just mild cases, people are being handed tamiflu anyways so the flu stays mild.

MYTHS@@!@!@!@!@!

DON'T HATE ON THE PIGGIES@!@!

Please, close this topic, it's bullcrap.

by **taker_kane10** Wed May 06, 2009 11:43 am

We don't hate the piggies! You can still eat pork! It won't harm you, and it isn't the pig's fault, human and bird flu mix together in the pig like I said before. Very Happy

Swine Flu isn't caused from eating pork, it is a human to human flu.

by Skrumeee Wed May 06, 2009 12:53 pm

Yes

But I know piggies are getting slack. I actually have had an idea for a little video I'll probably make at the weekend. If it turns out well I'll post it here.

by firasrocks9 Wed May 06, 2009 2:05 pm

ya, people are blaming piggies and killing them, when the flu is not from them... pig

by **taker_kane10** Thu May 07, 2009 11:52 pm

cool, I will, there have been 2 deaths in USA Sad

Are they Mexicans coming over the border for treatment?

by Skrumeee Fri May 08, 2009 11:21 am

Actually, according to BBC News the previous figures of hundreds are actually wrong and there are 31 CONFIRMED deaths WORLDWIDE.

Hmm, I love me a pandemic[/sarcasm]

On BBC Breakfast there was a man that was saying that swine flu is being treated by teenagers as just a normal flu and that shutting down schools is for no reason as other teenagers go out and meet other people and may pass it to them. Sad

by firasrocks9 Fri May 08, 2009 2:21 pm

thats true, closing schools wont make a difference, you can get it from any one walking around you

by **taker_kane10** Sat May 09, 2009 1:15 am

Correct, and the thing is right now is exam time, so if you're school is closed you will take your exams later. But still, the numbers of swine flu is going up. Sad

by Skrumeee Sat May 09, 2009 3:09 am

It will continue to go up, naturally. THen it will go down. Simples!@!

by firasrocks9 Sat May 09, 2009 8:19 am

yup, i agree with skrumeee
many people will get it, then it will stop all of a sudden or decrease majorly

by **taker_kane10** Sat May 09, 2009 10:34 am

Experts are worried that it will come back in the winter, but that's only experts not human beings Tounge

. Plus the press and the media are making things a bit too exaggerated.

by firasrocks9 Sat May 09, 2009 10:40 am

thats exactly what i told my parents yesterday!
media really over exaggerating it, media making things worst Sad

by **taker_kane10** Sat May 09, 2009 10:41 am

Now that's been said on the news people aren't really caring but aparently an American girl has died because of it, which means she is the first death outside Mexico.

by firasrocks9 Sat May 09, 2009 10:43 am

a canadian women died a couple of days ago, first death in canada
in Canada there are like 200 something cases, and only 1 was sever, so i don't think its really that bad

by **taker_kane10** Sat May 09, 2009 10:44 am

Yea there is like 200 cases there, here is like 39 or something but Spain has seen a dramatic rise too!

by firasrocks9 Sat May 09, 2009 10:45 am

Don't a lot of mexicans go to spain cause it is quite similar culture and stuff?

by **taker_kane10** Sat May 09, 2009 10:47 am

Yup but I would think that they would do some like checks and things at the airport to see if they had the flu. Last time I saw the cases for Spain, it was along with the UK, with something like 35 but all of a sudden I see like 70 cases!

by firasrocks9 Sat May 09, 2009 10:48 am

not sure, looks like it spreads easily then Sad

by **taker_kane10** Sat May 09, 2009 10:50 am

Yea! But still it's a big fuss! No need to get crazy yet, people are saying that it is mild symptoms.

by firasrocks9 Sat May 09, 2009 10:56 am

WHO (world health organisation) says if the H1N1 reachs next level, 2 billion people can get the flu :O
