The funny thing is, i told several people not to get flu shots, one of these days it will create some kind of super flu. Meaning if you don't get a flu shot then you have a better chance of fighting it.
You shouldn't baby you body to not getting sick, you needto build up immunity. The scary thing about this is it is killing off young childrten and adults. usually flu's only kill babies and seniors.:shake:
I heard about this on the news, and couldn't help but laugh when I heard "...the World Health Organisation has issued a statement saying that it is worried by the outbreak" or something to that effect. Way to go, WHO, point out the fucking obvious. A disease outbreak is worrying. Well done, the UN and all its branches were such worthwhile investments. It'd be nice to see them actually get off their arses and do something for once, but I guess you can't expect much from an assembly of nations' leaders. Put a large group of politicians together, and they'll bicker and drop each other in it like children.
It's all well and good to say that you need to build up immunity and not to get vaccinated, but don't you get that vaccination is going just that? The whole point of injecting weakened or dead bacteria or viruses into you is so that your body learns to recognise them, learns how to kill them off, and can therefore wreck their shit next time it sees them. That's exactly what immunity is, the difference being that you can get it without suffering from the condition in the first place.
I seem to recall some huge hoo-hah a few years back about another 'killer flu' to match the one that came through just after the first war (or was it during?)... and it turned out that it was only marginally worse than a normal one.
i hope it turns ppl to zombies
Rebirth of the plague. Every one...bring out the lances. Time to lance some buboes. :v:
There's people on the street getting diseases from monkeys,
Yeah that's what I said, they're getting diseases from monkeys.
Now there's junkies with monkey disease
Who's touching these monkeys please leave these poor sick monkeys alone,
They've got problems enough as it is.
Someone say The Plague? :mech2:
But seriously, this sounds pretty cool.
This happened in 1918 and 1976. Flu strain constantly mutates, getting a vaccination against it isn't going to cause a super flu. Retards shouldn't be giving medical advice.Quote:

I wonder if it's really just plain fearmongering or just periodically slow news weeks in the summer.
Also, Madagascar already closed the port.
Heh,
Worded my post wrong :(
Oh and snaf, suck my fat hairy balls.Piss off. :)
no, flu's genuinely dangerous, but only to people who have compromised or weak immune systems or idiots who don't look after themselves properlyQuote:

some places in mexico like guadalajara are very sanitary.Quote:

Stop worrying. When it's killing millions, then you can worry. Until then, it's just an outbreak of swine flu in one of the filthiest cities on the planet.
Actually, down here in Texas we just had our first case of a human giving swine flu to a pig.
Revenge?
Naw, sexual interest.

Congratulations on basing your outlandish posts on retarded stereotypes! You obviously know soooo much about Mexico and its sanitary conditions, when I doubt you have been there, ever in your life. Sure there are areas that are not very well kept, but there are places like that in every single other country on the entire planet.Quote:

Confirmed cases in Nova Scotia, Canada.

New York, too.
Yea just saw that on the news too. " Confirmed suspected cases"
Damn, this thing is spreading to random places like a pregnant-rich-bitch (joke, but still)

I never said Mexico as a whole is filthy so you can fuck right off with your overdefensive nationalism.Quote:

No, I don't even think it was that. That's how much of a non-event it was, nobody else seems to remember it.
Uh the "swine flu" is actually an extremely rare and naturally impossibly unlikely combination of human flu, bird flu and pig flu that sprang up in multiple regions at the same time.
Basically, Man Bird Pig flu. If it does start killing alot of people, then I'm going to laugh.
Oh, so it mutated into existence in multiple places around the world at almost the exact same time.
Amazing! :aaaaa:
GUYS GUYS GUYS DON'T DO ANYTHING THAT WOULD STRENGTHEN YOUR IMMUNE SYSTEM UNTIL THIS BLOWS OVER LET ME EXPLAIN:
Ok so, Swine Flu attacks the immune system and causes it to overreact and spaz out and attack your own body. If your immune system isn't very strong, it won't have much success in attacking you. PEOPLE IN HYGIENE OBSESSED NATIONS SHOULD BE OK.
As for Mexico, many Mexicans regularly consume foods that are unsafely made (street cheese made in dirty bathtubs, as well as the water supply in many areas) and don't get sick. That same stuff would make most of us puke. Their immune systems are very hardy. Hence the high number of deaths in Mexico, particularly Mexico City, where conditions are worse than other areas (and by extension, its citizens would have better immune systems). Swine Flu causes their supercharged immune systems to attack them, putting them in a very bad situation.
DOES THAT MAKE SENSE?
Where did this flu originate?
Damn, looks like NZ didn't close its ports afterall :smith:Quote:

Subject: Swine Flu Type: Text
It has come to our attention that two University of Canterbury staff and
two of our students travelled from the United States at the weekend on a
plane carrying secondary school students infected with Influenza A.
Students will be aware that Swine Flu (H1N1) is a new strain of
Influenza A.
The two staff members and two students have been asked to remain in
isolation for three days having commenced a precautionary course of
Tamiflu. They will be guided by doctors as to when they can return to
the University.
During this period of uncertainty about Swine Flu, it is important to
keep abreast of current and correct information, especially regarding
impending travel. Appropriate local information can be found at
http://www.fluinfo.org.nz/
Another useful link is http://urgent.internationalsos.com/default.aspx.
Students should consult a medical professional if they have any health
concerns, particularly if they have visited North America or Mexico in
the past fortnight.
Students who are intending to travel to these areas in the near future
are advised to monitor developments.

that aint working, dats not the way you do it.
ya get the Influenza on ur scene.
Worst.
Dire Straits reference.
Ever.
If anyone mentions Mark Knopfler I will kill them. My dad plays his couple singing shit with that country bitch nonstop. The one thing all duet singers have in common: They all think they sound good. They don't. Ever. Duets suck. End of story.
oi timo ya need to post in this thread for a sec.

stop calling it the swine flu.its a combination of human flu, bird flu and three different kinds of pig flu (north american, asian, europe) You should really call it the super flu. I find it very unlikely that all those types of flu could combine like that in one place. Then again this IS mexico were talking about so idk. its now 149 deaths last time a checked and i expect that number to grow. This could kill you if your not careful. hopefully it mutates into something less harmful. If it doesnt, then we have a problem.
No, it's swine flu. It's not human flu, avian flu and 3 different pig flues. The strains of influenza the pig carries can be transmitted to humans and birds, yet it's still SIV.
It's not super flu. It's SIV.
Well it finally reached my small country. Honestly it makes me nervous its in a 50km radius of my county, and I know 2 different people at my school that just came from mexico. Fucking A
It's only killed people in Mexico so far. Everyone else is recovering without incident.
Heh, don't be worried guys.
Not that anyone should have been anyway.
Have you heard of the game Pandemic 2?Quote:

Also, to actually be on topic:
This swine flu is a perfect example of what is wrong with the media, they have us all worried about a flu that has killed no one with hygienic living conditions or access to proper health care, and yet the fact that there are places all around the world without those things (you know, the root of the problem) barely seems to get a mention edgewise.
Ok heres the deal:
It's not flu season,
Didn't come out of the east.
Flu allways is tracked and follows a path.
This popped up out of "nowhere"
It has race and gene specific handles on it that scream manufactured to any bio scientist.
It has been marvelled by doctors as a "skeleton key" virus, that can infect almost any creature, because of it's pig and bird and human factors.
A 6 scale earthquake occured in mexico city right on the eve of this epidemic. (google: dod breifing secretary of defence s cohen earthquake weapons - it comes right up at you. It's been declassified but no details.)
The news has SEVERELY white washed the real figures, people on the ground in mexico are saying 2000 deaths.
The real give away, is that it's being so massively hyped by everyone. Flus kill thousands every year, thats normal.
No one knows for sure, wether this is just the forefront, the trigger for the next virus or wether this is just a scare to accept more degradation of freedoms, or wether this is actually going to mass kill millions like the spanish flu of the early 1900's.
Basically, this may be the cause for everyone to run in fear to the "solution".
Baxter has been chosen for the vaccine manufacturing, the same people who were found in britain to be giving the homeless bird flu.
Dr Eric Pianta - Univeristy of Texas, google him, got a standing ovashion at Saint Edwards in Austin, for saying kill 90 percent of the population. This isn't an idle thought. The un, the kissengers, they want an 80 percent reduction in the population by 2012.
This thing is clearly manufactured, the real question though, is this a real killer or is this just a scare tactic to sign away more laws.
Basically, get a nano mask.
The scary part is, the fema camps and the mass graves now make alot of sense. Camps for those who don't take the shots, graves for those who do.
and then the topic was ruined by an unnecessary debate started by a conspiracy theorist
Stop watching fox news
:mysterysolved:
:cop:
yeah i'm sure they bioengineered this skeleton key virus in 1918.
god damn, dane.
So do alts of banned members.Quote:

Dane seriously, stop watching infowars, alex jones and like of all those xenophobic anti-social fools.
Learn something about the way a virus replicates as well.
Fuckin' SARS, was forced to wear a mask. Though it did cause school to be closed down for several weeks because somebody had caught regular flu, lulz. And then schools were officially closed for over a month and a half.Quote:

This way he could achieve his ultimate goal: A CHOCOBO THAT COULD GO OVER LAND, RIVERS AND OCEANS, seen here
By doing this he could find the unmarked island in the northeast corner of our flat planet and find the ultimate summon: KNIGHTS OF THE ROUND
Using this ultimate weapon, he would have the ability to destroy entire armies of weird animals in a single cast, and finally enable him to defeat his arch enemy, THE EMERALD WEAPON, seen here
See, its all predicted in the bible. Just look at the gospel of Walt Whitman. LOOK AT IT!!! ITS ALL THERE!!! Its also part of the movie The Obama Deception, and its in Zeitgeist.

Ok, I don't know what you guys are talking about half the time in this thread, and a couple others. This alex guy, whatever.
Dane you are so full of it.
I read a book in my biology class once, and I remember one scary paragraph from it. The book was about dangerous viruses and how they can spread around the globe in a matter of days. I don't remember the name of the book.
"Every possible place that a new virus or disease could pop up is within 24 hours travel to any international air port, where it could travel around the globe to any city, any place on earth within hours."
It went something like that. I remember it telling a story, a scary one, about a man on africa, who contracted a very dangerous and contagious disease and managed to make it all the way to Washington DC. Why this was never in the news, I do not know. That paragraph was in the first few chapters of the book. I'll see if I can find it for y'all.
