What's to say...none of the speculation really matters.  What does matter is what is within your control.

Protect yourselves folks.

Anxiety should never be entertained but for those in the US that have in this regard, it is official - "The (US) president said the vaccine for swine flu — known as the H1N1 virus — would be voluntary"

Gotta remember the health care industry only profits if people are diseased in the first place...yeah, I see the conflict too.

Found out today at work, we have 4 confirmed and 1 unconfirmed infections. The unconfirmed is because the person refuses to go to the doctor.. some kind of religious thing. He was sent home. This all happened in 1 day.

I'm tempted to get exposed to this just so I can get it and get it over with. If I recover, then I'm immune, if I don't recover then I have all the medical attention available to me ahead of everybody else who hasn't gotten ill yet.

Seems logical to me Opsec!  Were the 4 confirmed actually confirmed or just assumed?  I had thought that CDC wasn't testing anymore and seems to just lump anything that looks like flu (H1N1 or regular) as swine flu.

My wife is a lab tech, she tells me that anyone that tests positive with influenza type A this early in the season is considered swine flu positive. These people, 4 are confirmed positive by the rapid flu test, as flu type A, so it's assumed they have swine flu.

Seems reasonable.  I just heard a Maryland news blurb where the state health director was stating that not every case of fever, runny nose, sore throat and cough was swine flu.  Then the news went on to state that 98% of flu cases were swine flu variety.  Ok.  Guess 98% is not every one.   :laughing002:

My son had a neurology appointment today.  I asked his dr about the swine flu vaccination since I didn't want to give it to my kids.  His answer was "Don't".  Childrens Hospital is not taking a firm yes/no on vaccinations, but in his words, "we aren't recommending vaccination".  The part that just about knocked me out of my chair (since I hadn't mentioned autism, thimerisol or vaccine load -- just adjuvants) was his off-hand comment "besides, the autism/vaccination relationship hasn't been fully figured out yet."

Keep him. At least he's got an open mind and can think for himself.

It's unfortunate that the first person who seems to have noticed the vaccination-autism link, jumped to conclusions regarding causality, thereby messing up the debate. He also overstated the case of the Amish; they do get autism, just not at the rates we do. And some of them vaccinate, but others don't. It probably depends on their Ordnung (their community rules). They seem to have no objections to technology as long as someone else does the worldliness dirty work for them (they'll accept rides in your car if you are on friendly terms with them--they just won't own one and won't drive one), and so they are sometimes somewhat passive recipients of technology.

Their lower rates are probably the result of a combination of lower vaccination compliance (they tend to ignore "English" laws they don't feel have any relevance to them) and working outdoors more (higher levels of natural vitamin D).

Oh, we're going to!  At the first visit, he offered to send us on to Children Hospital's autism clinic.  I declined unless we run into bigger problems than we have because I was comfortable with him and Matthew really liked him.  Doc even agrees that anecdotal evidence from parents heavily points to a gluten free diet being a big help.  No feeling that he's just humoring us.

The more I read about this vaccine the more it upsets me.  There are going to be thousands of people walking around in my environment SHEDDING swine flu to us because of the damn vaccine!  Of course people are going to get it!  The fear will all seem justified when we all come down with swine flu.  Even though I am not going to get that vaccine, and risk cancer and auto-immune diseases (which have a higher likeliness than swine flu itself) I can still be exposed because it is going to be radiating off of everyone else.

We can stay in the house, for the most part, but my husband has to go out and take public transportation to work.  And I will have to go out to buy groceries.
If someone says something unkind about me, I must live so that nobody will believe it.
