H1N1

So for all the rant and rave out there about H1N1 I thought the world had gone to the pigs. People freaking out like its the new SARS do need to realize some important things. Swine Flu is only really dangerous to those who have compromised immune systems like the elderly, the young, those with cancer, or A.I.D.S.. So if you are a normal fit person with a decent immune system just be careful if you suddenly acquire intense flu symptoms but you should be just fine.

Although I'm not talking about this issue though just because its somehow trendy. You see I joined the elite (here's the OFFICIAL FAQ) 29,546 people who have Swine Flu. Yea it has officially found its way into my home. I haven't gotten checked yet but a 5 year old child who spends 1/2 his days at my house it turns out does have it. You would think that if someone KNEW their child had H1N1 they would not send them to daycare with other people's children! ARRG!!

Yay I get to go get tested soon! What I really hate is apparently this woman KNEW her child had H1N1 BEFORE dropping him off to day care but failed to mention it until AFTER she picked him up at the end of the day! Why have they thought to make laws in my state about hunting whales but they have yet to make laws about willfully spreading dangerous diseases to children? Someone here really needs to have their heads examined!


So give me a jingle America, either call 1-800-GO-EX-LAX (1-800-463-9529) or just leave me a comment, I'm very curious to hear what you have to say on the subject!
