Britain could face up to 65,000 swine flu deaths

IMO swine flu still nothing to worry about : unless it mutates.

Now if a spreadable flu like swine were crossed with a deadly one like bird then we could get something like cybercretin predicted.

I agree.

I'm not going to worry about it though.

Just announced on the news that the 29th victim was a 'healthy' six year-old boy. This follows on from the 'healthy' six year-old girl that died last week.


Glad I don't have kids to worry about.

You know there would be some poetic justice if you caught it.

Now that would be funny.

You seriously telling me this is like normal seasonal flu?

How many healthy young people die of normal flu?

Wake up. This is serious. You'll realise it in a few months, if you are still alive.

I honestly can't work out whether you are on a wind up, or if you're in serious need of therapy, or if you're just not very bright.

If everything in the world was going swimmingly, I suspect you would just turn up your toes because you'd have nothing to moan about or forcast a doom-ridden future about.

Maybe piggy flu can mutate so that it removes the hard of thinking from the gene pool. What a result that would be.

Well, I've got very mild flu symptoms today. Took a couple of paracetamol yesterday after feeling rough with a bit of sneezing and a bad throat for the past two days. According to HMG, only 30% of the population will catch swineflu. That seems a great underestimation to me.

I didn't start this thread and only posted figures released by the dept of health.

All I asked was people to think about this and compare it to normal flu which does not kill young healthy children and does not occur in great numbers this time of year.
