Swine Flu: Coming to a town near you

[WillieWannabe]

If you get on quick onset of flu symptoms go to the doctor right away. The flu season should be ending right now so it should be unusual to get the flu. Kansas had a relatively dormant flu season this year. Last year was worse.

You should prally call the doctor not go to the doctor. They will tell you what to do from there. No need to go spreading the possibility in waiting rooms.

Sorry bro. Fewer people = better for the world and animals and stuff. Thanks for taking one for the rest of us.

After reading the actual twitter feed, I think that cartoon is 100% correct. 

[Cole]

yeah, the two cases in kansas were in dickinson county............where i live. i'm Fncked

[Trim]

He didn't know.... They didn't even know that Dickinson County had anything like that.  Two of the sherriffs were out sick, so there was some speculation that they were dying and spreading it to all illegal mexicans and inmates in Abilene.

  What's a juice woman?

What's a juice woman?

a woman that extracts juice from fruits (+ some vegetables) and then sells it.

[raquetcat]

Does a flu shot do anything against this, or is it a mutation that it doesn't work on?

So juice, vegetable blends like v8? Does she have pineapple juice? And if so is it good?

My dad says it is 1 of 4 steps towards the apocalypse

her main juices are grapefruit, mandarin orange, orange, beet, + carrot.  any mix you want.  cactus, celery and pineapple can be ground up and added to any.  i usually get mandarin, orange or a 50/50.  it's incredibly good.


you can get way more flavors at a water (ground fruit/veg, sugar + water) place.

From my understanding there is no vaccine yet since it's a new strain of the swine flu. Not sure tho.

[Pike]

Update: Fox News just said they could have a vaccine by early May, but wont be available for 4-6 months as they have to test it and FDA approval and all that crap

They tried this in 1976 during the Pig Flu scare, and it turned out that the vaccine caused a nervous disorder and was much worse than the flu.

[jeffy]

Didn't they try that in the movie "Outbreak?"

I think this is more like a "12 Monkeys" type of flu.

Pig looks happy

Egypt, apparently concerned that pigs can fly, has mandated that all pigs in the country be slaughtered immediately.  They must get their information about public health from reading twitter.

Slaughtering that many pigs will greatly reduce the amount of pig flatulence coming from that country and reduce their carbon footprint.

Unless of course they burn all the carcasses, in which case all of the carbon will immediately enter the system at the same time.

Influenza kills a lot of people in the US, just FWIW

It's called "pretext".

Is the Swine Flu going to be worse than SARS?

Remember the SARS epidemic that killed literally tens of people wordwide???!!
