....makes you wonder if you can trust doctors

If I have to be perfectly honest and direct.......

My GP is a waste of breath and space.

The chemist has more savy....

surely its better the gov is cautious and takes the threat seriously, buys drugs than do nothing, what would happen if 100,000s of people died and they hadn't bought the drugs?

Dom should remember the 1918 flu pandemic , It is estimated that anywhere from 50 to 100 million people were killed worldwide.

MY GP's surgery certainly seems to be STILL taking the "threat" seriously enough ... as the waiting area has been totally bereft of the usual array of glossy magazines and boxes of toys, for months now!

My son had his swine flu jab this morning. I`d rather he had it than not especially as its free and no bother.
He`s only 9 months old and now I dont have to worry about him catching it. I just worry about all the other things he could catch but hey, its one thing off the list!
A common cold isnt life threatening but if someone offered me a jab to protect me against it i`d take it.
