chale aki en mi jale ya nos dieron tapabocas

para cogerse alos moscos o para el despu?s de besar puercos?

Good idea.

Hace un rato, ak en Argentina, dijeron que hay una drogra antigripal que es para evitar la enfermedad en cuanto uno tenga el sintomas, en Estados Unidos hay 2 en este momento, y el antigripal q se usa hace 10 a?os que esta en el mercado argentino...

Si se usa cuando ya tienes los síntomas no es entonces para evitar, sino para curar.

Afirmativo

Pues aca dijeron que si hay 2 tipos de drogas pero ninguna previene ni elimina la enfermedad.

CNN wants to help its viewers and online users get answers surrounding the outbreak of swine flu in Mexico. We’ve had an outpouring of questions come in. The following are among the most frequently asked questions.
Q: Why is it more deadly in Mexico than anywhere else it’s surfaced?
CNN: The short answer is investigators don’t know. The deaths have occurred in healthy people, as opposed to those usually most at risk from the flu: the young, the old and those with compromised immune systems. The same thing happened in recent years with the SARS and avian flu outbreaks. The spreading virus starts a cascade within the body as the immune system overreacts. Fluid builds up in the lungs and inflammatory cells throughout the body react to the infection.
Q: Does the normal influenza vaccine offer protection against swine flu virus?
CNN: It may offer some. This particular virus seems to be a combination of several different strains: two strains of swine flu, one strain of bird flu and one strain of human flu. It’s the human flu portion of the virus that that the flu vaccine may offer some protection against.
Q: Can animals, such as dogs or cats, contract the swine flu? If so, can they transfer it to humans?
CNN: There is no evidence that dogs and cats can contract swine flu. Still, this is a new strain of swine flu virus, and investigators can’t rule it out until more tests are done. In the past, the avian H5N1 flu has infected domestic cats and at least one dog in Thailand, according to the scientific literature. In 2004, the equine H3 virus appeared to infect dogs. There have been no reports of dogs or cats spreading the flu to people.
Q: How long will it take if a person has the flu before they show symptoms?
CNN: The typical incubation period for influenza is 1-4 days, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. The symptoms are similar to the common flu. They include fever, lethargy, lack of appetite, coughing, runny nose, sore throat, nausea, vomiting and diarrhea.
Q: How does a person contract swine flu? Does it come from pigs?

CNN: Swine flu may have come from pigs originally, but it is now being spread from among people. The virus spreads the same way the seasonal flu does. When an infected person coughs or sneezes around another person, the latter is put at risk. People can become infected by touching something with the flu virus on it and then touching their mouth, nose or eyes. An infected person can pass the virus to another before any symptoms even develop
Q: Should I avoid traveling to Mexico because of the swine flu?
CNN: The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has recommended that Americans avoid all “non-essential” travel to Mexico.
Q: The swine flu has been labeled as H1N1. The strain that killed millions of people in 1918 was also labeled H1N1; is it the same virus?
CNN: It is not the same virus. The current strain is a new variation of an H1N1 virus, which is a mix of human and animal versions. H1 refers to type of hemagglutinin, which is involved in the virus gaining entry into a target cell. N1 refers to neuraminidase, an enzyme that allows the release of copies of the virus from infected cells. A new variation can be created when an animal is infected with two or more different viruses at the same time. The viruses can exchange genes. This can be particularly dangerous because people may not have any immune defense against it.
You may have heard to this swine flu virus refered to as “Type A.” There are three general types of influenza, Type A, Type B and Type C. Type A occurs in many species and historically has been the sole cause of pandemics.
Q: Where did this swine flu come from? How did the outbreak occur in Mexico?
CNN: Researchers do not know yet know. People usually get swine flu from infected pigs. For example, farmers handling infected pigs can contract the virus. However, some human cases have occurred without contact with pigs or places they inhabited.
CNN will continue to answer your questions as the story progresses.

en resumen, cuidense por qeu aun no sabemos nada de nada.. a poco no spens?

jaja, si.

pues .. si.. est? ca??na la situaci?n.. pero para eso basta con tener los cuidados que en cualquier circunstancia se deben tener, no es necesario que haya epidemia..se llama SENTIDO COMÚN.

-no saludes a la gente de mano, si no sabes d?nde estuvieron esas manitas antes.. y ser concientes de que si la higiene personal no es la mejor no exponer a la gente a lo mismo.
-cubrirse con un pa?uelo o con la manga al estornudar.. eso lo hacían mis abuelos en la juventud.. no se por qu? ahora le da a la gente por salpicar a medio mundo (giak)

-no estornudar sobre la comida.. he visto a gente que le vale madres y en el super sobre la fruta tosiendo o estornudando.. o gente picandose la nariz y agrarrando la fruta.. osea.. "un poquito de por favorrrr"..


anyway.. no hay por qu? alarmarse tanto.. yo ya fui al df, ya regres? y estoy sanita sanita..

-histeria colectiva se llama a esta epidemia.. y basta con que los que se sientan mal vayan inmediatamente al hospital..

Mm..Gij, fuiste de pasadita al DF. No quiere decir que un par de días en un ?rea particular de la ciudad te expuso al ZOMG Piggy Virus.

Adem?s, juzgando a lo que vi una y otra y otra y otra vez en los noticieros, los hospitales est?n retacados de gente que en cuanto se 'sinti? mal' se dirigi? al hospital m?s cercano, y varias de las instalaciones rechazan gente que sigue llegando por lo mismo.

asi es y luego nada mas van por qeu andan espantados y de retache pero ese es tiempo que le quitan a los que si estan enfermos. espacio y tiempo.

Y si gijjy no marchesfuiste por cuanto 1 dia? dos? No puedes juzgar como estan otras areas, es cierto que hay un poco de histeria al respecto y qu eno se esta actuando de forma responsable de parte del publico en gral. Pero de que existe la enfermedad no se puede negar, y el negarla es cooperar a que se extienda mas. Hay que tener cuidado y punto.

A mi sinceramente fuera de broma si me preocupa un poco mi hermano que esta atendiendo casos de eso sy de otros, pero siempre me ha preocupado por que escogio una especialidad donde de a tiro se la pasa cone nfermos contagiosos o terminales.

Y me preocupa mi familia que esta en san luis y que ya van casos que les han pegado cerca. Sobrevivientes casi todos.. la parte triste es el casi.

la verdad es que tengo mucho miedo... todos est?n hist?ricos....

me da mucho miedo por aleks, obviamente no hemos ido a clases pero cada vez hay m?s infectados y quiero pensar que todo va a estar bien, pero no s?...


trato de seguir normal... algunos de mis familiares no salen ya de su casa, pero pues tambi?n es exagerado, tienes que salir aunque sea un poco...

no he subido ni subir? a aleks al autobus ni nada así, mejor a patín...


ojal? que todo salga bien pronto...
