You're all gonna get swine flu

[Lucky Charms Pancake]

How bout that. I didn't hear about it till I was sitting around watching the news. IN MEXICO.
I just came back today and none of my friends will come near me >>
Oh well, it might be fun to mess with the people at school tomorrow.

And on another note, vertigo is a cool word, but a terrible thing.

You have vertigo?
Don't you know that's a symptom of SWINE FLU!!!

You're going to kill us all.  

[Neiina]

come on, kill us all? there has only been one death in the US. that is a small number compared to other deaths that occur every day.

LOL, but that is a bit sad finding about the flu while you're in Mexico. bound to make the rest of your stay just dandy >__<

That sucks D:
At least you didn't get sick while you were down there.

People are getting really stupid about this rolleyes As long as you practice decent hygiene, the big bad swine flu won't get you.

@Neiina: That one death was a toddler. Their immune systems aren't fully developed yet and washing hands before sticking their fingers in their mouth isn't exactly very high up on their list of priorities confused

Or if you get really sick your school will close. A few schools are closed here.

We put lots of Purell bottles out at the information desks. I also bought some Bath and Body works stuff which smells a bit better.

L.A. is dirty and somewhat dangerous, but nobody's sick here yet 3nodding
There's an Alfred Hitchcock movie called Vertigo. I think we've got it on dvd.

da war kein Land zu s e h 'n

It has not been found from Finland yet, but we do have couple suspects.. eek Hopefully false alarm.  

[Parasox v2]

we've got a couple of cases in the UK
There are already people in London wearing masks.
I'm not really worried about it but I'm guessing that will change this weekend when I actually have to go to London sweatdrop  

[Lucky Charms Pancake]

I kinda hope they close my school, it would be nice.
And Salmay, Purell was my best friend at the airport haha

exactly. I'm sure most of us are strong enough not to die from this swine flu. if we want something to worry about then worry about getting into your car every day, you have a better chance dying because of an accident than this.  

[Razin Frostdrake]

we were due a disease scare. it's not surprising. we often end up with disease scares.  

[lilartichoke]

*cough*avian flu*cough*  

[Salmay]

We have a confirmed case in my state! Three or so closed schools.

Apparently 36000 people die in the US every year from flu.

Yes, but what alarmed officials was that adults in their prime were dying down there in Mexico. Usually a flu will kill elderly and children.  

[Salmay]

Yes, I know. Shades of the 1918 pandemic. I wanted to do a disease display but I was told it was too scary.
