| when i first heared about it, it didnt bother me cos i knew bout the whole bird flu thing, but i was talking to my health lecturer who is a retired doctor and he said that the viral vaccination (im not sure whats its called think its along the lines of anti viral treatment) said it will soon stop working and as they have no other treatment thats when there will be deaths, so to sum it up once more people start catching it, which they will as its like flu one person gets it and then the whole uk has it etc, then you would be given then treatment, it stops working, you catch it again and the people with the weaker immune system will possibly die. But even if he is right about this, its no different than you catching any of virus like the comman flu, people forget you can die from that (although nowadays its a slim chance) |

| There are 107 confirmed cases in the UK! and 9,836 world wide! And 79 confirmed deaths! I'm sorry but out of 6billion people, that is not a lot LOL! So that's 0.145% of the worlds population that have swine flu! Oh no it's a pandemic LMAO! I recommend pandemic 2, it's an online game! Very addictive! |
