You people are getting it too?
I thought it was only going around america right now, which is why I didn't make a topic. My family hasn't gotten it.. but it doesn't seem too serious in my opinion.

I think the media is giving it too much hype, personally, and a similar outbreak occurred in '76 but a vaccination was developed. I'm not too worried yet. When people in the U.S. and Germany start dying by the dozens like in Mexico, then I'll start worrying.

It's irritating, honestly. Everyone's going nuts over this thing which isn't even as lethal as the normal flu. >_<;' Sigh. Yeah, it's not good to get it, but it's not even a fraction as bad as everyone is making out to be.

Yeah, it's not good to get it, but it's not even a fraction as bad as everyone is making out to be. I do agree with that to be honest. It's like the big Bird Flu thing... seriously, it's just media hype.

1205 deaths per day from smoking alone.
Who cares about some swine flu crap?

I heard theres 15 cases of it in the UK, 4 fatalitys, the others are just infected. I also heard the virus has became water borne. but I think thats a lot of shizzle.
