You know you are quite WRONG with your suggestive heading... Your caption made it appear as if the Bird Flu is here...the question should have asked, has it reached any of the Caribbean or even Florida....

Exactly Canewry! My heart dropped in my mouth when I read that heading. It is very misleading and emits an entirely wrong message. People please take the time to structure your headings and posts. Delroy I think you should edit that heading!

I hope you knocked on wood when you said that! But anyway, hopefully the Ministry of Health has agressive surveillance of this epidemic plaguing parts of Asia. They were pretty aggressive when the SARS epidemic was at its peak, so lets hope they remain as vigilant.

we really pray it does not reach bahamas as well
the flu is spreading from the asain countries to the european countries through migratory birds
the governments are trying their best to stop the virus from spreading
they are ordering flu shots like tamiflu
since the medciation is running in short supply it is sometimes ordered from online pharmacies like http://www.drugdelivery.ca/s3353-s-TAMIFLU.aspx
a vaccine to stop the virus has still to be invented

Well they kept the Ebola Virus outa the US all these years .. why not this lil flu :D
well actually the ebola came to the US but ...

Rory, be careful calling this a lil flu.
One thing I don't like about it which is puzzling: the news said that the stronger your immune system, the worst this flu will do you!!! Isn't that scary!?
This is an article by Dr Andrew Weil who is a medical doctor as well as an herbalist/nutritionist.
I am surprised he has advocated taking flu shots, something many herbalists don't approve of!
