Anyone following this lately? I wonder whats next. We had avian flu, now pig-flu so i guess the next thing is that flying pigs flu  No outbreak here so far, and the gov here has 1,4 million doses of treatment ready so i guess we're pretty safe still. I heard there was a possible outbreak in Australia and Canada? |

I was a bit quick. Since my last post, there has been an outbreak in Denmark and now possibly on the west coast of Norway. this virus seems to travel faster than air. |

Apparently there are three "known cases" in Canada and a few people
with flu like symptoms are being monitored. All these people have
recently been to mexico. None of these people are in grave danger at present.

The World Health Organization has raised the pandemic level to 5. Level 6 is where black helicopters starts shooting at everything that moves. Do they know something that we don't? It doesn't seem like many are affected, and i am not sure about the mortality rate either.  No cases confirmed up here yet. Denmark might have one case. Germany has one confirmed case. Hmm. Is this a non-event? |

We have had our first case in Australia. A woman had contracted the disease in late April while overseas and had recovered before returning to Australia. The strain of the flu has been identified in the sample but at a very low count |

No cases here still, but they're anticipating one any moment now. We've got 1,4 mill doses of tamiflu and more on order so they say that we're well prepared.
The amount of infected keeps rising. Seems like a repeat of the 1918 pandemic where it showed up mild to begin with in 1917 before going aggressive the next year.

The news last night said there are 233 cases in Canada and one related death.
The person that died had other health issues as well.

It is called the "H1N1" here now and cases are spreading like wildfire. There have been a few cases reported in the nearby village. Too close for comfort. They are telling us, we should have the vaccine by Christmas, (for my age group.) |
