How would you feel if they shut down everytime any kid was diagnosed with influenza? Because I can't tell you how many I diagnosed with the flu over the past few months. Thus far, here in the US, the symptoms have, by and large, been milder than most people diagnosed with the flu. Only one person has been so far as hospitalized. There is no evidence whatsoever at this point that shutting down the schools is going to do more good than harm.Originally posted by SlowwHand View Post"My nation is the world, and my religion is to do good." --Thomas Paine

Why give any kind of immunization for anything. Odds are, nothing will happen. Why buy auto insurance? The odds...well, you know, odds are all will be fine. Why health insurance? Odds are...Life is not measured by the number of breaths you take, but by the moments that take your breath away.

I think that opinion in the United States is decidedly different from the rest of the world because we have a free press -- by free, I mean a virgorously presented right wing point of view on the air and available to all.- NedComment

A few people have been wearing them around Monterrey in the city today. Also on some local show most of the presenters were wearing them, very weird.Originally posted by Theben View Post
Apparently there are none left to buy anywhere in the city either.

I have succumbed... but I have answers too!
...to the insidious Austro-Hungarian influenza virus. You thot is was swine flu but really it's a holdover fro WWI. God thinks the Huns were pigs.
So I'm chilling here in the ether between this life and the next, waiting in the queue to get my name read off to see where I'm heading. Apparently there's more than just heaven adn hell there's lots of places. Oh and there's no spellchecker and literally millions of souls are trying to use the net to conteact people so I have limited usage and have to type really fast. But I can give you some actioanble intel from the "beyond"!!I'm consitently stupid- Japher

He's a children's doctor, which is what's really blowing me away. Normally, he's very caring. I don't know WTF is going on now.
I think he's probably tired from doing a lot of good deeds anonymously.Life is not measured by the number of breaths you take, but by the moments that take your breath away.

Probably guynamer's problem is that he isn't a ****ing idiot.Christianity: The belief that a cosmic Jewish Zombie who was his own father can make you live forever if you symbolically eat his flesh and telepathically tell him you accept him as your master, so he can remove an evil force from your soul that is present in humanity because a rib-woman was convinced by a talking snake to eat from a magical tree...Comment

Actually, in this case, I don't know if the immunizations would help anything? H1N1 is this one, I believe, similar to the Spanish Influenza, but the data coming in is preliminary at best. They're not too certain about mortality or transmissibility.
As far as deaths, it seems to be killing not just the elderly, the young, or those with compromised immune systems, but also healthy (within reason) adults.B♭3Comment

You mean, he must have a rational, unbiased point of view?Originally posted by Docfeelgood View PostComment

I don't honestly think this is yet worth panicking about, though. Mexico's health care system isn't as developed as the US's (or, for that matter, the Pacific Rim (excluding China, Russia, and much of SE Asia) or Europe's), so they could be underreporting the number of cases (driving up the apparent mortality rate and lowering the apparent transmission rate) or not reacting fast enough to provide proper care.
Is it something to keep an eye on? Certainly. But for now, simple precautions like washing your hands, not touching strangers, and getting plenty of rest should suffice?B♭3Comment
