“What ever happened to swine flu?”

I took extra vitamin D myself, but I admit, I never knowingly came into contact with someone exhibiting symptoms of it, just contact with those after they said they had had it. The way the cdc quit testing and everyone with any symptom claimed swine flu, who knows how bad or not it really was.

A close relative had confirmed swine flu. Spent a lot of time around him. Even stayed at his house before and after.

For him, it was a mild flu. For me, I *may* have caught it — felt a little icky for about a day.

We’d had our normal flu vaccines, but not the swine flu one.

That whole thing was a bunch of hype and fearmongering, with very little truth to it. Sure, some people got it, and even a few probably died, but no worse than normal flu.
