[Hello J]

Yup, it's less of a killer than normal flu so what is the point giving it out?

Can you imagine if we gave it out to everyone then in 2 months time got an outbreak of bird flu? We'd be in the sh*t then... People would really have something to moan about then.
The thing is, Tamiflu is in good supply due to the Bird Flu scare, the truth is the NHS & Gov prepared for Bird flu a good few years before we even heard of the risk..! So why would they want to rid themselves of the stock when it still will be a risk.. ?

The ones who are being given Tamiflu are the people most at risk, basically the normal at risk flu people, elderly, immunity supressed, asthmatics, young children etc.

tamiflu doesn't work anyhow in some cases underlying health problems ie asthma severe chest problems etc the tamiflus effectiveness is reduced

For mild case, organic salt water seems good enough. Tamiflu should be used in most strong case.

In Northern Europe, there was a case which the swine flu virus was found against Tamiflu. Doctors needed to use other drug. (Ram__)
