I choose not to respond to H1N1 as a hazardous, disastrous flu that will wreak havoc across the world. Sure, it is a flu, but it only has mild symptoms. None greater than Norovirus. Lasting only 1 week, with a fever over 38, it’s not that bad for the average healthy person to get through. What is winter without a week off because of a fever and sniffles?! Knock on wood, tap on the ceiling, nothing will prevent getting the H1N1 Flu besides washing your hands for a solid 20 seconds with soap and water. Yell at the person leaving the bathroom w/o washing their hands- it’s your duty! I think Bronchitis may be possibly worse than the flu.
What’s all this business about suggesting not to have a vaccination for the “regular” flu, because of the increase in susceptibility to getting H1N1? Load of crap! If you’re not skeptical about this warning, then you haven’t had your bacon for breakfast. I think this is a cheap scam to save money on people getting over-vaccinated to prevent a run-out of vaccines, but “of course this won’t happen.” Pssshaw. The worst of it all is when Prime Minister Harper’s government arranged for a delivery of extra body bags to a town in Manitoba. Disgraceful, disgusting, and disappointing. Tension headaches suck, otherwise I would so continue writing.
End of rant.
