Daisy,

So sorry to hear that your neighbour's three month old baby is seriously ill, but babies have a way of bouncing back in no time as breast milk is the wonder drug that helps them thrive.

Daisy, I do hope your neighbours baby and toddler are OK. I don't think anyone is being flippant, just a way of dealing with it and with the media hype. We do appreciate that for little ones it can be dangerous and worrying. Actually another aspect with little ones, the meningitis trust< I think it was them, were concerned that with everyone watching for swine flu, somebody might miss the symptoms of meningitis.

I was reading in our paper this morning that a man from Quebec has died of the swine flu.
Apparently he was given Tamiflu after his son contacted it.
He became ill and died.
It has been discovered that the strain oh H1N1 he had is drug resistant.

The WHO is asking school boards to consider plans to close schools if the pandemic worsens.

Don't forget. The flu of 1918 was mild in it's first round.
It was the second and third round that killed 50 million people.

By the way, I'm not worried about it at all. If I'm going to get it, I'm going to get it.

My Daughter in Law works for a ladies clothing chain and 2 of her colleagues have been sent home today with symptoms. One has been confirmed as having Swine Flu. Tonight my DIL has started symptoms. My other Daughter in Law works in a creche and a child there has also been confirmed with Swine flu.

Seems to be spreading like wild fire. I would prefer to have it now as i am going on holidays in 5 weeks.
