  • Answer:

    Stop it you're scaring me. This is too much. You should stay home until it clears up, if it doesn't then we know the answer. The last thing we need is for this thing to spread all over the place. Stay in the house. There needs to be quarantine on this stuff, too many people are dying and I don't want to be next on the list.

I don't think you should worry. You can tell because the flu will make you ache all over, and you will be so sick you won't want to crawl out of bed.

Only if you have an uncontrollable urge to roll about in the mud.

Atm I have a cough and running/blocked nose too but its just a regular cold. This is the perfect season for regular colds since the dramatic change in whether means our body spazzes out and can't handle the change meaning it gets sicker more easier. I got my cold on friday but two days before hand i was at home and didn't leave the house so i must have caught it from someone on sunday - tuesday and the threat in the uk didn't happen til the sunday just gone

symptoms are similar to that of normal flu. I.e. fever, fatigue, lack of apetite, sore throat etc. A slightly runny nose and cough is a sign of having a cold. so don't worry

lol, of course you don't have swine flu then, it's just a cold. Swine flu has similar symptoms to the actual flu, your symptoms sound like a mild common cold. Please, don't get scared by what the media say. Furthermore, how can you have the swine flu if you haven't been near anoyone else who's infected?

the symptoms are very similar but the symptoms for the swine flu are much worse like muscle aches are much more painful and same with the headaches. In some cases there is diarrhea and vomiting as it said on the news anyway. CATCH it.....BIN it.....KILL it :)

You will know you have got swine flu when you come out in rashers (rashes)

swine flu has extra joint pains, so it hurts when walking or moving body. Sure way is to put a specimen under a darkfield microscope, the virus will reflect from illuminator's light and you know how influenza virus look like. Only 200 labs around the world can trace subtype of influenza by a Chinese flu chip inserting into a slot of tube light and it takes about 2-11 hours. Commercial antigen test takes about 15 minutes, but it cant know its subtype either.
