And it's always abou...I love conspiracy theorists. And it's always about getting rid of black people. That's why the swine flu showed up in Mexico first. Ho, boy.<br /><br />Getting a flu shot does not mean you won't get the flu. Every year they roll the dice on what they think will be the flu strain du jour. Sometimes they are right, sometimes they are not. There are many different viruses going around as someone stated and if you got sick four times you probably had four different bacterial/viral infections.<br /><br />Finally, let's put the last old spouses tale to rest. The flu shot does not cause the flu. They have not used live cultures since the 1970's. The only way you might get sick from a flu shot is if you are already infected with something. That's why they ask you if you are running a fever when you go to get the shot. <br /><br />I heard a report last night that one possible reason that this flu isn't making people in the US as sick is because so many people have received flu shots over the years and there is some resulting partial immunity to this particular strain (HC1something or other). Although the swine flu strain is apparently very similar to the last year's flu shot, last year's flu shot won't protect you from swine flu. <br /><br />I'm not a doctor, I just play one on the internet.<br /><br />You should be washing your hands every time you come in from being out and about. If you are out and about to eat something with your hands, you should be using those little anti bacterial towelettes or washes. Wash your hands before you touch any food. Even the grocery stores recognize how filthy their grocery carts are and offer antibacterial wipes by the grocery cart area. <br /><br />Class is over for today.west coast storyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16833809632143106334noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23428832.post-726896133610516812009-04-28T02:12:00.000-04:002009-04-28T02:12:00.000-04:00This is not being handled right.To encourage folks...This is not being handled right.To encourage folks to be afraid of anyone coughing is ridiculous. And then what is going to happen when you sit in the doctor's waiting room: da dum...you'll catch swine flu from another. So why go there. And then I love: stay home from work. Come ON People; how many people stay home for weeks...talking about loosing jobs--try that excuse and your manager will want a doctor's excuse: back to the doctor's waiting room and to think you may have just had the "normal flu" which will now turn into swine flu. I tell ya before this is over some communities will be quarantined: and I wonder just which communities. Come On people; just watch what you eat, wash your hands and keep your mouth closed while in public. Yes mouth closed. Those hairs in your nose are for filtering. Swine flu behind all of this other stuff in the economy is just to coincendental for me....Think folks. Who stands to gain from this???the vaccine industry.

Since most of the cases have been much milder that in Mexico, I hoping that if I do catch it that with the antiviral drugs.

Best protection is to wash your hands often; avoid people with known respirtory illness, and if your immunity is compromised stay the Hell isolated from the world!<br /><br />I have to agree with others, shrimp, lobster, catfish are leading the pack in grime scroungers...everything is 'bad' in extremes.<br /><br />But hey, we all have to die one day.cinconoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23428832.post-7565158498710823882009-04-27T14:29:00.000-04:002009-04-27T14:29:00.000-04:00Down here in Mississippi and Louisiana it is blood...Down here in Mississippi and Louisiana it is blood boudin, if you can get it.
