My country (Norway) is well underway of getting its population vaccinated agains the ongoing pandemic and that made me wonder: How many are vaccinated elsewere? Are you (or is going to get) vaccinated?
Pretty much the same here.Monkfish Acc. said:No. And I don't plan to.
To be honest, I'm not taking this swine flu thing seriously at all. To me, it is a media scare and nothing more.
Conversely the majority of the infected in Mexico were the young adults, elderly and infants, because of the inhibition of the negative feedback mechanism in the immune system resulting in the flooding of the Cytokines creating a cytokine storm.OmegaXIII said:The only reason i'm getting it is because i'm a med student. I really wish that people would drop the hysteria though, it's only a risk if you are normally at risk of serious consequences from the flu i.e. elderly, infant or infirm
You do know that cold weather itself cannot give you any illnesses, right? If you want to be sick, hang around sick people. Being cold only lowers your immune system somewhat, since the body needs to use more energy on heating you up. Or something like that.Arconius said:I stood out in the rain for 2 hours just so i could get it, in -2 celsius! Got sick for 2 days becouse of that!![]()
I dont think it was worth it, im one of the people that thinks its all a massive hype. I havent heard anyone i know have gotten sick actually.
