A Sgt in the Air Force - a Crew Chief at Luke Air Force Base in Arizona, died Sunday from complications due to the H1N1 virus.

All active duty personnel at Luke, in all Divisions, have been ordered to get vaccinated.

No. I don't. Would you provide a quote/source?

It is noting to worry about. My wife is a nurse and she says that all the doctors just laugh when the media blows this thing out of control. In some instances people havn't even had fevers, if I was to have the flu I wouldn't mind the one with no fever.

Someone from our health department made a presentation at a meeting last night. He said that in April, the CDC instructed doctors to consider all flu as swine flu. When asked about the numbers of regular flu in previous years, he said that the cases were not tracked. His his advice is to take away the "swine" and protect yourself the same way as for any flu.

I think the reason that there is such concern is that this flu hit during the summer. The incidents of flu are more widespread in the winter. So, BC swine flu is already presenting, they worry that it will get very bad once winter hits.

It also seems to be hitting younger adults harder than usual. Personally, I think the biggest problem will be its negative impact on the economy if it hits hard. Parents will miss work to tend their sick children, workers who come down with it will miss work. And BC so many are treading water financially, there will be more folks coming to work when sick and sending their children to school at the beginning stages, when symptoms are not that bad, but they may be most contagious.

There is the belief that those born before 1957 may have a degree of immunity due to previous exposure, which is why this group is not listed as the first tier to receive the vaccinations.

That clip was absolutely ridiculous and embarrassing to watch. How can anyone watch that crap channel?

I don't care if you are liberal or conservative. If you have a brain in your head then you will see how FOX News is complete crap. It is just so dumbed down and the intelligence level of their segments is sooooo low.

Can't the conservative propaganda channel do a better job than that? Most of the liberal propaganda channels are a little more slick at least.
