Please do not be afraid of this. It is not as “New” as people think. Swine Flu has been around for a long time, and people over the age of 30 are likely to have already come into contact with this virus at some point in thier lives, without even knowing it. . . The MAJORITY of cases are very mild, like Cold Mild. . . dont get caught up in the media hysteria. . it will all be OK!!!

Aparantly since having it a few days ago my boss has had flu like symptoms (this is aparantly normal) but I have to work with her tomorrow.
I am 25 weeks pregnant and haven’t had the vaccine.
what do you think? will it be ok to go and work with her tomorrow if she is having flu symptoms? im really unsure.

My 77yr old mother phoned me & told me they’d like to reinstate / re-register her as a nurse (in preparation for the swine flu pandemic), despite the fact shes been retired for 20 yrs. I asked how serious a while back – comments were roughly along the lines of ” media hype” , ” not as serious as bird flu “.
What are we not being told?
