OT swine flu

[Poppy]

Hi Liz

We live in Oxfordshire, my daughter attends a special school for disabilities, they have a case there, but they are remaining open, in our area it seems they are treating it with anti virals, but not
closing schools down.

hi poppy the reason they have shut 1 of the schools here is because the staff have come down with it and theres not enough well teachers to look after the kids x

hello my two sons have it,they seem to be fine just a bit worse than a normal flu but not bad enough to stop wanting sweets. 5 days off tamiflu and they will be fine x x x x x

My sons girlfriend works on A&E at Hartlands Birmingham and said they have had some pretty sick people in with this Swine flu.

She said some people seem to be quite mild while others are very very poorly. I certainly don't want to catch it at the moment. My grandaughters school is closed so they have had strict instructions to stay away until I'm back on my feet..lol
