For any Victorians out there, I can tell you the one good thing to come out of the Swine Flu has been the first Andrew Bolt article that I've ever agreed with (re: Overreaction to the virus).

[fleckar]

haha cool man that'll show em

 

[sam04u]

Did you actually read the article?

No. I read the title and assumed I knew what the article was about (I was in a rush but yeah shouldn't have done that). The article is actually quite good.

Tamiflu is quite effective against all strains of the flu.

Apparently our entire stock of Tamiflu is useless because it's 5 years old and once it hits 5 years, it goes out of date

I haven't got swine flu yet.

I lol'd at the local butcher because he has a sign 'OUR PORK IS SWINE FLU FREE' and it's funny because people seriously still think you get swine flu from eating pork.

The media makes it look worse then it actually is, simply because it is active near the beloved Americans.

 

[ZaraKu]

When did you realise this?

 

[ablle]

Lies. The media spreads the troof. After all, why would they lie?

Roche and the U.S. government had already extended the shelf life of federally stockpiled Tamiflu from the original five years to seven years because studies indicated that the medication continues to maintain its effectiveness.

Wednesday 29 April 2009:
Swine flu hits the media & apocalypse formally announced.

Sunday 3 May 2009:
Media announces that swine flue 'isnt as bad as originally thought'.

Oh man but in those four days i quit my job and set up an air locked fortress outside my house and became a vegetarian.

Damn u media why would u blow something out of proportion for profitable purposes?
Why??

 

[Kwayera]

Fucking hell read the Goldacre article. Media overexposure does not undermine the fact that it's potentially serious.

This. (Just like media overexposure doesn't undermine the fact that anthropogenic climate change is happening.)

I read somewher recently that around 36,000 people die a year from normal flu in the US.

I lol'd at the local butcher because he has a sign 'OUR PORK IS SWINE FLU FREE' and it's funny because people seriously still think you get swine flu from eating pork.
