Who sponsored the study? Do you really want to trust British researchers?

My wife called our doctor when our children were sick and he said he did not give Tamiflu.

He said Tamiflu has terrible side affects. Pregnant women should not take it yet they were told they were the priority.

“Rare but serious skin reactions and allergic reactions have been reported. Stop taking TAMIFLU and call your doctor if you experience any of these reactions, as they could be very serious.

People with the flu, particularly children and adolescents, may be at an increased risk of self injury and confusion shortly after taking TAMIFLU and should be closely monitored for signs of unusual behavior. A healthcare professional should be contacted immediately if the patient taking TAMIFLU shows any signs of unusual behavior.

The most common side effects of TAMIFLU are mild to moderate nausea and vomiting. TAMIFLU is generally well tolerated.

In addition, take the following precautions when using TAMIFLU:

* You should not take TAMIFLU if you are allergic to oseltamivir phosphate or any other ingredients of TAMIFLU.

* TAMIFLU is normally not recommended for use during pregnancy or nursing, as the effects on the unborn child or nursing infant are unknown. If you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant or breastfeeding while taking TAMIFLU, talk to your doctor before taking TAMIFLU.

* If you have any type of kidney disease, talk to your doctor before starting TAMIFLU therapy.
* The use of TAMIFLU along with an intranasal flu vaccine like FluMist®* has not been evaluated. However, due to the possibility for interference between these products, an intranasal flu vaccine should not be given within 2 weeks before or 48 hours after taking TAMIFLU, unless it is deemed appropriate by your doctor. The type of flu vaccine administered as a shot through the skin can be given at any time relative to use of TAMIFLU.”

Yeah, Tamiflu may or not work, but asking NHS to fund a study as to whether an expensive drug works or not is like asking Michael Mann if Antropogenic Global Warming exists.
