    My Dad is convinced I have it. He asked me what symptoms I have and how long I'e had my cold for... it's only a cold! I'll be fine!.. My Dad doesn't understand this though.

    It is scary though to think that there's nothing to be done.. it's spreading and that's that

    Its flu........

    People without underlying health problems die of "normal" flu every year (36,000 in the US and 5,000 in the UK roughly)

    This is just different because its prevalent in pigs - its still flu

    It is getting rather ridiculous now. This swine flu won't stop me living my life how I wish too.

    It is getting rather ridiculas as i keep saying it is a flu. Like jojo says lots of people die from flu every year.

    Micah Richards the City defender caught it on Holiday so is confined in Cyprus and cant go back for pre season training. I found that quite amusing as he is getting more scared about the stick he will receive when it gets back to the team than the actual flu.

    That's just going too far. The windows are so small anyway that they wouldn't exactly make much difference and if she was going to catch it on the bus she'd be more likely to have got it by leaning over everyone.
