I really wish that doctors and hospitals would quit telling people they "probably" have swine flu without testing. I work at a doctors office and we do not have a test for swine flu. What we have is a test for Influenza A and B. If Flu A is positive there is a chance it could be swine flu OR another type of Flu A. We have tested and tested people with the symptoms and only 1 has come back positive.

Personally I think there is a virus going around that has a lot of the same symptoms and people are self diagnosing making the whole Swine Flu "epidemic" seem worse. This of course is just my personal opinion. That being said, I will not be getting the swine flu shots. Yes shots. From what we are being told there will be two shots that make up the swine flu shot. You will get one and then come back around 28 days later to get the second. I just feel like they rushed the shot and I am not interested in a repeat of what happened in the 70's where people had bad reactions from the shot.
