Everyone is jumping on the SWINE FLU bandwagon... I bet half the people that say they have or had it really didnt... Just an assumption because people around them had it...
Your son has the flu... Plain and simple until a test proves otherwise...
Yes, I agree with you. My neighbor's son (who is 7), called me last week and said her son had the swine flu AGAIN! I said, 'well, he must not have had it the first time." She said she took him to the doctor both times and the doctor said he had swine flu. (However, the doctor did not test). Just because he has a high fever and is coughing and congestive, automatically health care says it's swine flu. I don't think he's had it either time, IMO. Sounds like a bad cold or just regular old bronchitis.
Is this a scare tactic? And if so, on behalf of whom??
