lots of fluids, and rest will get you over the flu quicker than all the tamiflu in the world.
Chicken Soup, and healthy diet will protect you from getting it in the first place.

Yeah, but he’s gonna protect the Gitmo detainees. What a maroon.

Of course, there's no media (read lib) outrage.
Obama really IS to blame on the vaccine govermnent meddling, so since he can't drag "W" back into the White House on this one and beat him up, thus, no children are dying, it's not our fault we could only deal with Bush vaccine makers, etc.
The usual lib spin -- who ya gonna believe me (Obama) or your own lyin' eyes?

Dr. Frieden encouraged pharmacists to take adult Tamiflu capsules and, with careful measures, put it into a syrup palatable for childrenAs a professional in the Pharma industry, I can honestly say that these examples of compounding are not very effective. And believe me, pharmacists at Kroger, Walgreens and CVS will not do it. Their corporate masters will forbid it.

Were these children hispanic/illegal alien? Have underlying illness. Of course the article doesn’t say.
Sanjay Gupta of CNN says swine flu is not as virulent as othe flu’s and not as lethal....

Wondering just how many people who "think" they have the flu have been tabulated as swine flu (H1N1) pandemic victims?
CBS News on swine flu - fail!
The central claim is that CDC stopped testing for swine flu hastily and without advance notice to the states:
If you've been diagnosed "probable" or "presumed" 2009 H1N1 or "swine flu" in recent months, you may be surprised to know this: odds are you didnt have H1N1 flu.
To: Steelfish
how many children died of non H1N1 flu in the same period?

Probably none because seasonal flu hasn’t started yet.

A majority of these are actually dying of secondary infections like MRSA.

Swine flu is NOW more deadly at this point ... And according to many in the health field, here in PA, the regular flu has not hit.

I'll bet at least that many kids have died this year at the hands of crazed mothers or fathers.....at least that many killed by drunk drivers....at least that many that have died of cancer.....
its very sad when a child dies...or anybody...but we should things in perspective.....
if we didn't have the best health care in the world, thousands might have died by now.....

Any idea why there isn't enough pediatric Tamflu around? Considering the flu has been known from the start to hit some kids hard, I would think it would have been stockpiled this summer. A case can be made why vaccine isn't available, but Tamiflu for kids? Good grief, what are they doing at HHS and the CDC?
Recall a few years ago, after the media screamed Roche was not making enough Tamiflu, the company over expanded capacity and warned it couldn't afford to make what wasn't being sold.
To: MamaDearest
Oh, that’s not good news. I’ve been assuming our family had it already. Twice we all had symptoms so similar to H1N1 that I figured we had H1N1, although the doctor and pediatrician shrugged it off and we weren’t tested for it.

Their corporate masters will forbid it. You bet they will. This "do it yourself" formulary stuff is just begging for a nasty lawsuit.
