OT: stupid swine flu
It's all just really STUPID!!! Talk about hysteria and overreaction. It's driving me insane. They have closed a few schools in Austin until May 11 because 1 student got sick and "may or may not" have it. People are just looking for stuff to get crazy over. The doctors I've heard interviewed said the regular flu is more dangerous than this stuff....I feel like I live on an alien planet right now. Common sense is gone, gone, gone.
I work in a building of 500, and I know there are over 100 missing because they have no daycare. My department is small and there are 4 missing.
Churches are shutting down or saying.. 'cant pass the Peace or have communion.".. What do people do every day in UNorganized groups and places?
It's just nuts. YES, there needs to be caution and kids need to be watched very carefully. But good grief, the NORMAL flu is worse than the PIGGY FLU.
Okay, I will stop now. Going to take a pill and be quiet..

forgiveness is giving up the hope that the past could be any different
As a teacher i see so many kids coughing on each other, touching each other digging in noses etc.................... So i been making my kids wash hands left and right.
Not saying what everyone is posting is wrong...........but i would rather be safe then sorry .

It's just frustrating when my child is home, 'quarantined' as she calls it, and all the others are running WILD spreading germs and not helping the situation.
And I do agree, better safe than sorry.

I'm thinking those parents feel like I do...closing the schools is stupid. I understand the point of "better safe than sorry" but you can't stop the exposure if you have to go to the grocery store, get gas or anything else that involves leaving your home. You're going to get it or you're not.....that's what is making me think this world has going crazy.
Ok...I'm gonna get off my soap-box now. I just don't get it......
