11. Severity looks more severe in terms of pneumonia in healthy individuals
Edited on Sat Apr-25-09 07:52 PM by stray cat
It may tie up health services. It is susceptible to tamiflu at present and survival rates look good if its properly handled and diagnosed and treated early. But flu can kill and this one is no exception - it is worth watching as most healthy individuals don't normally take the flu seriously and this one may be worse for the healthy with a good immune system. No reason to panic but do be aware. Wash your hands often and if you get the flu you might want to start on tamiflu as it is most effective if given early.
