I live in Mexico ...Campeche, Mexico... but thank god there aren't any cases of swine flu, I'm happy about that.
but what I'm really worry about is DISCRIMINATION! why people is discriminating mexicans?, for example China, They have isolated 71 Mexicans, instead of helping.
that sucks!!

Hype or not, it's sad that people are dying from something like this. And all because greedy money grubbers aren't taking care of their animals, which are dying too. I just went into pissed off mode.

I am just really tired our hearing about it. I heard today that the death toll was only like 1,000. Which, yes, obviously any unneeded death is terrible but only 1,000? Out of a population of 6 billion? I really don't think its worth the hype.

I think thats horrid, those 1,000 people were family members, friends, boyfriends, girlfriends, childern and elders...

some might say that is small, but is it?

its still a lost of life.

Yes but how much news coverage do we give to the thousands of people every single day that die from starvation and dehydration? It's just been a slow news month so they have to suddenly care about something again. Doesn't help that the recession's gotten boring

Tim might have swine flu. He has basically all the symptoms. It could be just normal flu but we'll have to wait till tomorrow to find out. So I'm holed up in his at the moment - if I'm gonna get it I'll already be infected, and I don't want to go home and infect everyone else. Oh well, all fun and games!

A girl from my work thought she had swine flu and the doctor wore a bio hazard suit haha.

Hopefully the doctor's coming over to check him out today, but we're waiting to hear back. So far none of the rest of us have symptoms though
