    The press people keeps blowing things out of proportion.

    The anti-viral/anti-flu medicine that you can buy at your local drugstore can cure that flu. If you already have a flu shot, then you don't have anything to worry about.

    If the flu hits you, it would hit you. The symtoms of birds flu is like trankaso but twist: if the avian flu has become very bad, it can cause difficulty in breathing, which could be fatal to those people who have lung ailments.

    BTW, news is that malaki change dadapo dito. It's suggested that if possible, magpaflu-shots kayo, it doesn't prevent H5N1 but if you got a flu after the shots, then it'll be easier to detect and isolate.

    Also, yung hospital sa Alabang lang ang may A/C na pahigop instead of pabuga, if this becomes airborne, yun lang pinakasafe na hospital...

    Lastly 2 lang daw treatment center ng prepared for H5N1, yung San Lazaro and another one, I forgot....

    As far as I know the virus isn't transferred airborne naman, mahirap kung nag mutate then airborne na sya then yari na, ala HK na tayo nyan na nakamask lahat.

    Hoarding na ng surgical masks...

    actually hindi naman kaya ng mask na ganya iprevent yun. just like any flu it is usually contact and "airbourne" sa mga "particulate" that could carry the virus...AFAIK flu virus from birds (domesticated or wild) will be your primary source....how would you stop your lowly maya bird from exposing you?!?

    hindi ba nageexpire mga masks na N95? meron kasi kaming mga nabili nung kasagsagan ng SARS. 3-4 yrs na rin yun.

    i dont believe in masks, vitamins and others.

    best way to combat viruses ... exercise & lots of fluid & dont overeat.

    di ba nagka issue ung isang ospital sa taiwan coz of the air vents? something about the virus being transmitted via air ducts...

    btw, does anyone know who's importing the N95 face masks and tamiflu?

    Let's just hope the virus doesn't mutate and cause a pandemic.

    Roche po ang may gawa ng Tamiflu. Actually, I think their plant here in RP manufactures it too, but most of the stock is being sent overseas because there is greater demand there at the moment.
