Re: Swine Flu - Global epidemic fears
K20 I saw on the cw new york news tonight where a school in queens was shut down because a bunch of students that went to mexico on spring break may have it..... dunno if it's true or not but the news made it sound scary -
Re: Swine Flu - Global epidemic fears
Just watched Nightline - and I shouldn't have. That nutjob "Martin Basheer" is so overly dramatic.
Still tho - the story aint pretty and he just made it even uglier - if that's possible.
The doctors he interviewed are scared.
One said "I'm not liking what I'm seeing ..."
Duh!
8 people (6 CA and 2 TX) have already been infected. Thankfully all have recovered but they all soon more US cases will be coming soon.
It's a virus combo they're never seen before - a triple threat - containing aviary, swine and human flu!
Aye sah ..

Re: Swine Flu - Global epidemic fears
Mi rahcuh - all di CDC worrid to blerneet!
<span style="font-weight: bold">

CDC says "worried" about swine flu outbreak</span></span>
Fri Apr 24, 2009 11:26pm EDT
CHICAGO (Reuters) - The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said on Friday it was worried about a swine flu outbreak that has killed as many as 60 people in Mexico, sickened 1,000 and made eight Americans ill.
The CDC said people in the United States appear to have the same strain of swine flu, but it is not clear why the U.S. cases have been less severe than those in Mexico.
Here are some comments by CDC acting director Dr. Richard Besser from a telephone briefing with reporters :
* "So far there has not been any change in the pandemic threat level. The World Health Organization will be looking at the situation that is occurring in Mexico and will most likely be convening their panel of experts to address that situation."
* Besser said they will ask: "Is the virus new? Does it cause severe disease? Is it easily transmissible? ... Those are the three factors the WHO will be considering."
* Besser said the CDC has not yet sent staffers to Mexico. "We are offering support to the Mexican government in terms of epidemiologists and laboratory scientists to help with their investigation."
* "Understanding who is getting sick in Mexico is critically important," he said, adding that younger patients getting sick is characteristic of a pandemic.
* He said 7 of 14 Mexican samples had tested positive for the new and unusual strain of H1N1 swine flu.
* Besser said the CDC is working closely with the World Health Organization. "WHO is not at the point of declaring a pandemic. We are trying to learn more about this virus and transmission and how to control it."
* Besser said the CDC is being "very aggressive" said it was time for people in the United States to think about what to do if this does turn out to be a pandemic.
* "What we expect to be seeing is that people start thinking about their own preparedness. It's a time where there is a teachable moment and people can take action about preparedness."
* The United States federal government has a flu plan at http:/www.pandemicflu.gov/ and so does WHO at http:/www.who.int.

Re: Swine Flu - Global epidemic fears
Gotta wait and see how this pans out...maybe the terrorists have finally found a way to shut down the West.
Haven't we bin dere before with the Sars epidemic?
Seriously: <span style="font-weight: bold">"WHO is not at the point of declaring a pandemic.</span> We are trying to learn more about this virus and transmission and how to control it."
So everybody can be proactive, by avoiding crowded places...curtail public transportation if possible...for starters...and if the CDC really wants to help/control it, they can start thinking QUARANTINE..
edited to add...if smaddie a cough cough roun yuh...avoid them and if you can't, wear a mask..Comment

We are a selfish, destructive species. Maybe it's for the best if we are eliminated from the scene.

Re: Swine Flu - Global epidemic fears
No vinegar this time.
The secret is lime juice,not lemon. Remember that the first intibiotic (penniciline) was accidentlly discivered in rotting limes.
No you con't have to eat rotting limes. Neither do you need those flimsy masks.
<span style="font-size: 14pt"> Just drink water.</span> Lime water that is.
Just add the juice of not more than half a lime to each gallon of water keep it refridgerated and bottle is and take it with you.
.
Virus is actually remnants of a cell, that if survive is able to take control of a living cell and commandees it to produce cessl cabale of replicating the virus.
There is nothing to fear, but the lack of lime water.
Do not use more than the stipulated amount fo lime juice.
more is not better.
remove the skin of the lime before juicing.
Now go ahead and stop worrying about Bird, flu, swine fly or any other flu's that may be pasing.Comment

Wait, blugiant ge yu two lessons?
That is not what i learned in biology.
Anyhow here is one quote
<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Quote:</div><div class="ubbcode-body">Sir Alexander Fleming was a young bacteriologist when an accidental discovery led to one of the great developments of modern medicine on this day in 1929. Having left a plate of staphylococcus bacteria uncovered, Fleming noticed that a mold that had fallen on the culture had killed many of the bacteria. He identified the mold as penicillium notatum, similar to the kind found on bread. On February 14, 1929, Fleming introduced his mold by-product called penicillin to cure bacterial infections.</div></div>Comment
