the LOL its because it tookd the city hall 2 days to declare the epidemy, i am a little bit in denial and i dont know WTF i can do (we CANT leave the city until further notice), whats wrong if i want to take this situation in the best way possible (with humor), i moved here only because i met my GF, i CANT see her (for security reasons, i dont want to be the one killing her or her family), but yeah.. im shallow as fuck

Yesterday News
this is one of the reasons of my LOL

Today News
REALLY i dont know how to react

those news are in spanish, but long story short, yesterday the government was denying everything, today they just declared the epidemy (or epidemic, or whatever)

Like i said.. this is just my passive aggressive way to vent my impotence..

My research supervisor is a flu specialist. I don't mean to offend anyone but he's probably going to stay well-funded for a while with these outbreaks...

Anyways, when 20-40 year olds start dying, that's really scary. Flu kills a lot of people but it's usually due to another illness compromising the immune system (ie. old people, sick people). But young people? Oh boy, not good! The Spanish flu (killed like 2 million in the 1910s) worked like this - the transmission was roughly the same as regular flu but the virulence (the killing potential) was much greater.

- so far this virus is sensitive to tamiflu : )
(adult mild case or suspected are treated with 75 mg every 12 hours - 5 days, adult severe cases or confirmed/probable are treated with 150 mg every 12 hours)

- if u live near follow the advice around healthy people
http://www.cdc.gov/flu/protect/habits.htm
- around sick people wear a mask and stay at least 6 feet away

- if ur absolutely paranoid and everyone is healthy in the community (it might not give u full protection, but even partial can make a difference)
