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?


I hope your mother told them where to stick it!
I guess it’s disaster preparation, Just pooling resources in case the NHS gets completely overwhelmed. Nurses who are no longer in service are usually asked if they can be called in if desperately needed, such as in war and disaster relief. Calling on 77yr old ex-nurses is a bit strange though.
authorities are worried that millions of people will get sick at the same time. there is no cover up. if we all get sick, how will we have access to health care? the truth is; we won,t. most people won,t die from it. it,s just that there will not be enough people to help the sick, other than family members(maybe).
I’m not all too sure about this but I just saw a report on the news CNN, about 2-3 hrs ago, that we aren’t prepared for this upcoming flu season or something like that.
I also read in an article somewhere that since we aren’t prepared for it, they are sending in body bags. Don’t know if this statement is true though, I read it somewhere and now can’t get the site to come back up.
You’ll be disappointed when you finally learn that swine flu is not different in symptoms and affects,than any other flu.
How disappointing, no more big deal about swine flu, which has nothing to do with swine, in the first place.
like any flu theres risk for fatility, the difference, this causes bleeding in the lungs, and thus is more fatal than a typical strain. Theres jsut be clean, sanitize yourself.
That Smith Kline Glaxo have waged their most effective PR campaign ever. This is the biggest non-news story ever. I can’t believe how easy it is to fool people and even get the government involved – total insanity.
