Did you catch swine flu?

[Neversoft]

So with the swine flu hype almost completely gone I feel it is the right time to assess what portion of the forum actually caught the virus. I'll add an 'I'm not sure' option to the poll for people - like myself - who were ill at the time of the swine flu outbreak but never went to the doctor to confirm whether it was swine flu or not.

Yeah i caught it, most of my family did. Was vile.

[Hitman]

No it was to quick to catch.

I may have caught it, I had some sort of flu. Wasn't too bad.

[Blinger$]

Nope. my immunesystem is insanely strong!
Even though one of the first cases in australia was the town i work in ;)

[dirrty]

naw i didn't.

[Nemo]

Nope i didnt

[Richie]

not that I knew of.

[Erotica]

No, I didn't.

[Neversoft]

Wasn't near enough the whole world supposed to get swine flu? So much for the NHS's predictions.

[Special]

no - was it even real lol

[Mathew]

I was really ill at the time of it. We did the online-self-symptom-checker on the NHS website and it flashed up that I had swine flu. Printed off the paper, took it down to the pharmacy and they gave me the tamiflu tablets. Took them for five days and had some days off school. It was terrible :(

So I still don't know whether I had it or not as the doctor never really confirmed it, but I was fine after the tablets.

loads of peeps were ment to die and i was proppa scared, i didnt get it!

[jackass]

I normally get flu-type symptoms over Christmas.

The Christmas before last was the WORST (http://www.habboxforum.com/showthread.php?t=548303).

[Rozi]

nah, I didn't but my brother did :(

[HotelUser]

Yes, quite a few people where I live did and I contracted it from one of my best friends. How dare he!

[Arron]

No, I did not.

I hated delivering papers first thing in the morning with headlines such as "SWINE FLU DEATH TOLL REACHES 328436464.2" it just made me wanna be at home all the time :(

was you scared?

[Molly.22]

Nope, I didn't know anyone who did from where I live :P

[wiktoria]

no i didnt

Yeah they were, i think a lot more people got it tha theyre saying. Most people didn't realise because it wasnt as abd as they made out, so many put it down to mild flu or just the common cold.

[Blinger$]

Do they still have ads about this on the UK radio too? They keep on advising kids (infants) to get the swine flu shot ;l

[Volumise]

Dunno if it was swine flu but I had some sort of flu the same time swine flu broke out lool

[Becca]

Yeah, it's not as bad as everyone thinks.
it's exactly like a cold but you puke.

[Shar]

No I didn't :D

[dogboy123]

Yes I did :(

[Nicola]

Nopee, not many people around me did as far as I'm aware.

[sammy]

No i don't think i did, I had a sort of cold at the time but i think it was just a common cold. I think my brother had it though. They also said like 1/3 of the victims of swine flu didn't even realise they had it cause no symptoms happened.

[Nixt]

Apparently so, but I dunno tbh.

[gangstaagent1]

yeah, I caught it. 3/4 of our school was out for the week 'cuz of it. all diagnosed.

[Mikey]

Nope but at first I thought I got it but it was just me worrying. :D

[Meanies]

stayed away from me!

[Soy]

[Amberr]

I never caught it :)

[Gemma]

Luckily I didn't, though a lot of students in a school pretty close to me got it.

[immense]

yeah, i did, a lot of people at college did. not severe at all though.

[Tintinnabulate]

No I didn't.

[Stephen]

no i didnt but my sister did. I think only evil people in the world got it

[Hollie]

[lPinoy]

I had some sort of flu, not one hundred percent sure it was the swine, so not sure.

[-:Undertaker:-]

I'm pretty sure I didnt.
