Swine flu

Sitting here at home feeling S**t.
Probably only a cold but I don't normally get colds, who knows. Turned the radio off as I'm getting fed up being told that 65000 people are going to die of Swine flu.
Any body on here has it or know someone close who has it?

it's all media hype and only kills people that are already weakened by other ailments.
Doctors describe it as a mild flu, nothing more.

Argh! Spoke too soon!

Just been confirmed that one of the kids in my daughters' school has got swine flu, and the older sibling is in the same class as my daughter!

Let's hope it's not spread amongst the classes yet as they've now broken up for summer holidays!
