That's going to happen when the zombie apocalypse comes, and I'm pretty excited for that. I better get my flu shot so it doesn't off me before I get to go on a zombie killing rampage

Stop the conflusion: Here are the H1N1 facts - The Globe and Mail

h1n1-facts:

(excerpt)

H1N1 is a new virus so a lot of people will contract it. As many as one in three Canadians could fall sick with H1N1 if they are not vaccinated.

The good news is that, so far, disease caused by H1N1 has been relatively mild. A small percentage – but significant number – of people will get very sick and some will die.

Those at greatest risk of getting sick are pregnant women and people (especially children) with chronic medical conditions such as asthma.

Healthy young adults seem to get a lot sicker from H1N1 than they do from seasonal flu.

There's going to be a H1N1 vaccine available in a few weeks. It's a good idea to get it to avoid getting sick and infecting others.

It's also wise to get the seasonal flu vaccine. The “normal” flu sickens many and kills about 5,000 people a year, most of them seniors.

These vaccines are free.

Handwashing is an effective way of reducing the spread of germs, including H1N1 virus. Staying home when you're sick is another way to avoid spreading illness.

H1N1 is not the only disease out there. Even if you get the vaccine, you may get sick.

Every effort is being made to ensure the H1N1 vaccine is safe, but every drug has potential side effects. Experts believe that the benefits of the vaccine outweigh the risks.

I wish people would be more scared about the flu, maybe then they'd stop freaking out about the economy a little less.

Yes! This is way more probable than millions of ppl dying from the flu. What kind of legacy would we leave if that's what wiped out our effin species. No srlsy bring on the zombies.

This is exactly how we'll get the message across to the mtv crowd. Low brow with a dash of cynicism. Thanks for that, Juan.

fuck i forgot how incestuously you guys nitpick/circle jerk eachother around here



lol, Krusha's depressed thinks this bored is so lame, he's only going to post in this thread a few more times...

And I'm a sheep because I'm not willing to repost the same junk idiots post all over the internet.

I want them to put my bardcode on my palm so whenever I get scanned it's like I'm giving them a high five!

and @ juan , are you really surprised at my misanthropic leanings?

PS- That's probably one of the douchiest lines I've seen in my life. Human communication is about passing on clear and concise messages and ideas with ease. Using a word like "misanthropic" for the sake of showing off and trying to confuse people is for lack of a better word, dumb.

[C_squared]

Less misanthropy more philanthropy!

Wash your hands yo. For reals.

[dj_soo]

using the word misanthropic is "showing off?"

some people need to read a bit more...

Sigh...

Yes, most of us knew what it means. However, the use of it was obviously forced. Thus, in my opinion it was an attempt to "show off" rather then simply communicate a point.

And just for the record misanthropic, is hardly a common word in the English language, neither now, nor 50 years ago.

someone say sheeple plz

[ebbomega]

Amused at how people are waiting for it to get further testing. Flu shots don't normally have a lot of time for testing, this is no different from any other one really.

[-evil-duerr-]

testing? SHMESTING!

[ebbomega]

I love it when people take their medical advice from celebrities.

[-evil-duerr-]

celebrities.... yeaah... that must be it.

[C_squared]

^ yeah I don't get the celebrity comment either. I tend to avoid what famous ppl think about serious issues, especially when they pertain to potentially dying.

Did Bono give his two cents on this recently? I feel a little out of touch.

The hype has died here in the UK, but it did get out of hand this summer. Anyone that had flu like symptoms was told to stay away from their GP and call the flu hotline or get a diagnoses by answering questions online. If you were diagnosed with swine (most likely), the vaccine was shipped to your house and you were told to stay at home. However stories arose that many people and the people they lived with were strictly advised to stay at home for up to two weeks, even if they showed no sign of the flu.

Despite it all, we are all still more likely to get killed in a car accident than anything like this.

Most of the people promoting the autism-vaccine scare have been celebrities.

BTW, wum, I googled "vaccine autism" and this is the first result that came up.

But thanks for coming out.
