I done has teh flu =/

[LongAndShort]

I get the flu each year. Its bad for a week, then clears up maybe leaving me with a blocked nose and/or sore throat for another week. I'd still go to school/work/uni. No little flu's gonna keep me down! Stay active, drink orange juice, spend a lot of time in the sun, it honest to god helps. Personally I wouldn't take the meds, it means your immune system fights of the flu naturally and is stronger for it. If anything take vitamin supplements, they work a wonder.

You people are why there is even strain of the flu still existing.

Quarantine yourselves people!

This is not how it works.

This is not how it works.

For starters, if I'm gonna suffer, others are gonna fucking suffer with me.

Second, yes it is how it works depending on the medicine. I assumed he was talking antibiotics or similar meds, which are an unnatural boost to the immune system. However, overuse of antibiotics has lead to massive evolutions of the flu which means we have to constantly change them and vaccines to keep up with the evolving flu virus. Unless your dangerously vulnerable to the flu, you should deal with it naturally.
I still take cold and flu tablets because they deal with the symptoms, making it easier to get on with life.

have you made out with any swine lately? But no, I have never had the flu before, and hope I never do.

Either you get a shit load of vaccines each flue season or you need to go out side. I choose not to get a flu vaccine so i get the flu each year, its not that bad because i can stay home and watch G4 all day

I am out all the time, even just finished uni which is a sess pool of walking disease, and for some reason I never get sick. Maybe I should market my blood as a cure....
