Did You Know About The Latest Suspected Casualty From H1n1 Vaccine?
by admin
in ref to:http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/33845867/ns/…
Yes, don’t even tell me about the “one in a million” chances. It still happened.
And the CDC says there’s “no clear link” when the person got symptoms of GBS just HOURS after getting the vaccine! Unbelievable!
From the article: “Doctors are reluctant to discuss GBS in connection with vaccines… Anti-vaccine groups frequently cite the disorder as evidence of vaccine dangers, which public health officials fear will discourage people from getting life-saving protection, especially in the case of H1N1.”
–But it IS evidence! The “odds” don’t make an incident like this “okay.”
article: “…officials have urged the public not to blame the vaccine for the illnesses.”
–WHAT?

How Do I Write A Company Policy Regarding H1n1?
by admin
I am working on writing a policy for the nonexistent HR department of a small company regarding H1N1 and I haven’t a clue on how to go about this. I haven’t been able to find any good sources online to help me outline this.
All i know is that the company, in short, wants the workers to call the doctor and their supervisor when ill with flu like symptoms and not come in till a fever of 100degrees is gone for 24 hours without the use of fever reducing meds like Tylenol .

New Rules For Labor And Delivery At The Hospital Because Of H1n1. Anyone Else?
by admin
They have rules where I’m delivering because of h1n1 going around. I can pick 3 people to come into labor and delivery. They will get wristbands after they’ve been checked for flu symptoms and these are the only 3 people that can use the wristbands. Once I’m moved to postpartum visiting hours are from 2-7 and you can have 3 visitors at a time after they have also been checked for flu symptoms. No one under 18 can visit unless they are one of the original 3 that got a wristband. Is anyone else hospital doing something similar? It doesn’t really affect me either way because most likely it will just be my boyfriend there.My family is 6 hours away and probably won’t make it until after I have the baby but I could see some people being upset because both sets of grandparents plus their boyfriend can’t all be there. What do you all think?

What Are Schools Around The World Doing About H1n1 Influenza (swine Flu)?
by admin
I’d like to know what actions schools around the world are taking to prevent H1N1 (Swine) Flu spreading! To be honest, schools in my country are giving any student with any flu-like symptoms a 1 week sickness holiday. Any school that is proven to have a student with swine flu would close the class with the student in it, and if 2 or more students are proven to be infected in 2 different classes, the whole school is shut down for 2 weeks!
What are schools doing around the world?

Moms Of Babies Who Have Had The H1n1?
by admin
My hubby was just told last night at the hospital that he has the swine flu more then likely. Im already feeling ill, and I have an 8 month old son, so chances are if its the h1n1 he’ll get it because hes only had the seasonal flu vaccine. Have any of your babies or really young ones had it yet? What are the symptoms in babies to watch out for? How did they handle it and how long did it last in them?
Thanks =)

Telling The Difference Between Regular Flu And H1n1?
by admin
Okay, so I’ve been sick for 4-5 days now. I’ve had the regular flu before but it’s never been this bad. I already went to my doctor and I’m being tested for the H1N1 but my results won’t get back for approx. another 6 days. So I’m just wondering, what’s your take on my sickness. Regular flu or not? So my symptoms are aches and pains, headaches, stomach aches, fatigue, really bad cough, stuffy/runny nose, sore throat, really bad chills, and I think that’s it. There’s nothing else I can think of right now, but any help would be appreciated. Thanks

Pregnant And Need Some Kind Words About H1n1?
by admin
So Monday my 7 year old was diagnosed with H1N1, he had a high fever and body aches and a cough… he is doing 100x better with just a lingering cough…. I called my OB right away (I’m 30.2 wks) and was given Tamiflu as a precaution I started that on Monday and have had no symptoms. It scares me to take it as it is a category 3, but both my OB and my high risk dr *I also have gestational Diabetes* said I need to take it and at this point it is my best option.
Today after his morning nap my 1 year old woke up with a 101.8 fever… so he now has it…
I am just so stressed, my children have never seen me cry, but today they did… and of course I am not supposed to stress, but much easier said then done.
If you have any encouraging words/stories I would greatly appreciated them.
Thank you.

My Sister In Law Has The H1n1 Flu, She Lives W/ My Other Sis In Law Who’s Pregnant, Im Also Pregnant…?
by admin
Their mom wants me to have my sister in law come and stay at my house to get her away from the sick sis, but I am also pregnant and I have a 10 month old son. The sisters share a room, they are always together and they share drinks, food, smoke off the same pipes, ect. I would think that if the older sis is sick with the h1n1, that the younger pregnant sister will have it very soon, because of how close they are. They are upset that I wont let her come and stay at my house but I do not think that is a good idea, I dont want to get it and I do not want my baby to get it! I believe that shes going to get it whether she is here or there and all that would happen if she came here is that me and my baby would catch it too. Also we went over the their house last night and had dinner with them, and it pissed me off that they always invite us over and when we get their someone is always sick, but they never warn us first! I hate that, isnt that rude? I always warn people if me or my kids are sick, before they come over, especially if they have kids or are pregnant, I just think its common sense. But they never warn us, then we always end up sick. So does anyone know for sure if it would be ok to have the younger pregnant sister come over to stay here with us, if shes not showing any symptoms? I think the parents should put her up in a motel. Well thanks and God bless you all.
