Symptoms include fever, lethargy, lack of appetite and coughing, while runny nose, sore throat, nausea, vomiting and diarrhea have also been reported.
A few people have come back from holiday in Mexico with these symptoms and we're panicking?

My wife suspects that I have swine flu. Apparently the symptoms of swine flu are: sweating, excessive body odour and laziness.

Level 9

Already at level 4. To me levels 5 and 6 look quite straightforward.
Phase 5: Human-to-human transmission in at least two countries. Strong signal pandemic imminent
Phase 6: Virus spreads to another country in a different region. Global pandemic under way

Has anyone wondered if there is a vegetarian angle to this ? We ban smoking in public places to protect people from passive smoking but the poor old veggies are being hit by passive pig-flu.
I think they should stop farting and sue somebody

Also, this flu causes immense respiratory problems and the much hotter climate and less access to facilities with air-conditioning may exacerbate breathing difficulties.Last edited by Cyberman; 28 April 2009, 05:56.

Mexico now confirms 149 dead from swineflu, and the WHO raises the alert level to four from three. Level six will be an official pandemic.
All of the deaths are of people from ages 25-50. Thank god I am 54.

As somebody heavily immuno suppresed I think I'd better just cut out the middle man and top myself.
