Quote from Gokuthegrate

The media is just trying to use something new to freak people out again.

It's a shame. I live in B.C.
(It's still a nice place to live in though~)
Hopefully it won't turn out for the worse.
I've been trying to be more hygienic than usual.

It's not really a big deal to catch it unless you have a weak immune system. Infants and old people would be at risk the most. Also you can't catch it from eating pork, unless you like your pork raw and bloody I guess... In any case this thing is blown way out of proportion just like the avian flu was. Completely ridiculous.

Although a very small percentage of people could be harmed if they have a weak immune system, any flu strain at all and sometimes even a common cold could prove fatal for them anyway. Swine flu in no worse or better than any other strain for most people.

I don't care, my immune system has always been awesome, and i don't come in contact with very many people, and those that i do, i keep a distance from naturally, so its not a problem at this moment.

You know that it already has hit the UK?
It's in Scotland at the moment the last time I heard.
Getting supermarkets to deliver food is a great idea 🤣

I'm not too worried about it.
I just hope my mum doesn't freak out -__-;

It's not in Belgium yet, so i ain't worried about it.
besides, it's not like the world's going to end when it does..
everyone's just exaggerating, imo.

It's in the news all the time,
but I doubt it will ever reach this
point. If it is going to try, godspeed swine flu.

epic fail lol

i live in Venezuela and some ppl are saying that there r some cases of the swine flu around here, but it looks like its just gossip.. atm..
They r giving vaccinations as a preventative measure anw...

Quote from Panic!182

You should be fine as long as you don't live in Mexico. They're being hit hard by it. Plus, no one's died in the US yet from this so it should be fine for me.

looks like some ppl died in mexico.. like 22 out of a hundred or something of victims
and its a flu.. just like any other flu its airborne...

I just heard 3 new cases in UK. It's not in Scotland anymore.
There's a dude from London, another dude from Birmingham and a 12 yr old kid from Paignton...it kinda freaked me out since my home is also in Devon 🤣
