redneck666 Posted October 28, 2009 Report Posted October 28, 2009 hey guys, well, im a grade 11 student up here in the north (sault ste. marie) and 261 kids called in sick the other day and today 300 somethin... i myself have developed "flu like symptoms" but im sure its nothin i got to worry about... anyway i just want to know how many people through out ontario are sick..? any schools closed yet? and maybe the few non-canadians on this site know about the sickness levels in their communities?
bigfish1965 Posted October 28, 2009 Report Posted October 28, 2009 Pretty much everything north of Orillia is a mess. Us southern Ontario peeps are just now starting to see it show up... 5 or ten kids per school. My parents live near Powassan and that area is a mess with the H1N1 flu as is the area around TJ's place. At least it will be done by ice fishing season. Going to get my shot Friday.
kemper Posted October 28, 2009 Report Posted October 28, 2009 are we talkin swine flu sick? because the swine flu is a beautiful excuse for pharmaceutical companies to cash in BIG time, but thats about all it is.

Tell that to the families of the people who have already died. Many deaths Kemper...many more to come. Not everything is a conspiracy. Sometimes bad things really do happen.

misfish Posted October 28, 2009 Report Posted October 28, 2009 Been sick almost for a month now. Just when I think it,s gone,it,s back. Very frustrating. I have taken more vit C then I can count. Tablets,oranges even lots of fluids. It,s going to take some cold temps,I believe, to kill of this.

Dont Panic young feller, youll live, boy times have changed, talk about paranoia, 300 missing from school, 4 with swine flu? Betya no one dies. Any Bets. Gad, all we had to skip school was a teachers strike.

You never had the issues these kids are facing with higher densities and hi efficiency heating with R2000 buildings... Don't kid yourself into thinking your generation was tougher than these kids, cause you weren't. There are more cases than just four..they do not bother swabbing and testing once an outbreak is confirmed since the treatment is about the same. The H1N1 just spreads faster and is more virulent.

You should actually try going to a Doctor dumbass!!!... they have meds now that can cure that stuff in a matter of days!.. ever heard of Tamiflu? .. smoke another cigarette, that'll help!
MJL Posted October 29, 2009 Report Posted October 29, 2009 I was sick a couple weeks ago with a pretty severe cold. I ended up taking some Cold FX I found in the medicine cabinet and went fishing...No kidding it cured me right up

Guest gbfisher Posted October 29, 2009 Report Posted October 29, 2009 It was very Sad to read about Paul Frustaglio's Son..
Guest Johnny Bass Posted October 29, 2009 Report Posted October 29, 2009 Well my daughter APPARENTLY has swine flu, but yet no one else around her has contracted it. Go figure. I guess she was special?? If it is a flu and it is contagious? How does that work?

Baloney, watch American news, then watch ours. You think that there is an Ebola epidemic in Ontario. Just Calm down, before you frighten the masses. As far as issues kids have now a days. Ask any older folk and they will tell you that they are soft and gullable to anything on TV, Video Games and the internet.
holdfast Posted October 29, 2009 Report Posted October 29, 2009 I suppose nobody ever lined up in school and got vaccinated for small pox, nothing new, except small pox was truly allot worse than the severest flus. Before anybody jumps me, Like I said to the young feller, dont worry, dont panic, you ll be ok.
Mattones Posted October 29, 2009 Report Posted October 29, 2009 Girlfriends sisterwas getting voer swine flu. NO ONE told me before I came over until I saw her in the mask in the computer room. I stayed for 10 minutes and left. Next morning woke up with a sore throat. I actually took a shot of moonshine hat morning and have been doing it all week. Once I start feeling ill I always resort to moonshine. Works for me.

Holdie, you're waaay to old bubba!!!... the U.S and other countries stopped vaccinating against smallpox in 1972!!!... the world was declared smallpox free in 1980!... who says vaccinations/innoculations don't work???
JPD Posted October 29, 2009 Report Posted October 29, 2009 Here's an interesting read on a site that was sent to me by a good friend who deals with the human body all the time.. Swine Flu Article I personally don't believe in getting a shot as I agree that our bodies become stronger by fighting things off. For people with medical conditions or weaker immune system, yes it can help but for someone who is perfectly healthy it's a shame that they would let their body get lazy! JP

jediangler Posted October 29, 2009 Report Posted October 29, 2009 I heard tonight that the chance of you dying of swine flu is 400,000 to 1. It's about the same as winning the big jackpot on a scratch ticket. Problem is the drug companies don't make any money on those odds. I'll take my chances. If it's my time, it's my time.
