Within minutes, six-year-old Rubjit Thindal went from happily chatting in the back seat of the car to collapsing and dying in her father's arms.

"If we had known it was so serious, we would have called 911,'' Kuldip Thindal, Rubjit's distraught mother, said in Punjabi yesterday. "She just had a stomach ache -- she wasn't even crying.''

Rubjit was pronounced dead at hospital barely 24 hours after showing signs of a fever. Later, doctors told her parents she had the H1N1 influenza virus. She is believed to be the youngest person in Canada with the virus to have died.

You have my prayers! My daughter was diagnosed with H1N1 (all three were) and they all recovered. Two days later, the youngest had a relapse and it started over.

Reassurances though because she recovered and I am having faith that yours will too!

New school closures in my area:

Updated: Medford Area Schools closed due to H1N1

MEDFORD — The Medford Area Public School District today announced that it will close its schools until Monday because of a high number of students who have the flu, including confirmed cases of H1N1 influenza.

Twenty percent of the district’s 2,100 students, or one of every five students, were absent from classes this week, said Jennifer Faber, administrative assistant in the school district.

Every school in the district will be closed so that the virus can die off on its own.

“We’re basically locking our doors — no one can come in, not even custodial staff,” Faber said.

Anecdotally, the urgent care was packed tonight, all with people wearing masks. No one came near us without full gear on, gloves, masks, gowns, the works. The staff said it was non-stop since 7 that morning....all ILI cases. We were also asked tonight what school my child attended, and that had never been asked before. When I asked about it, the lady gave me some story about how she always asks it, but no one else does. I call BS....I was in there a week ago and she didn’t ask.

Also, my kid’s ped told me earlier today that you can be reinfected with H1N1, yet tonight I was told the opposite. I then asked about precautions at home, since we have a high risk member in our family. I was told we didn’t need to take any, yet no one came near us unless they were in full garb? IDK, but *something* doesn’t make sense in all this.....

Thank you all again for your prayers.

This is an article about getting the swine flu twice , I should have another one to post too ......

I read many personal accounts of getting the H1N1 / swine flu twice too !

(( Getting the swine flu twice ))

(( Bell told officials in a blanket email she and her children were among a number of people in Richmond Hill who have gotten the flu twice. ))

Some parents want the school board to close Richmond Hill Middle School for at least a week as a result of the H1N1 virus.

One of those parents, Rachael Bell, has contacted a number of state and local officials and the media. Bell is critical of the way local school administrators have responded to the H1N1 virus.

“The question is, why is Richmond Hill Middle School still open and why are we continuing to subject our kids, especially those with compromised immune systems, to such significant risks,” she said. “There simply comes a point when where one has to ask oneself what’s more important, missing a couple days of work and the financial ramifications or our kids’ health? I think a lot of sick kids’ parents are asking themselves that very question and I believe they make that choice for their kids.”

Bell told officials in a blanket email she and her children were among a number of people in Richmond Hill who have gotten the flu twice.

And she isn’t the only one voicing concern.

Another parent claimed to have heard there were absentee rates at RHMS as high as 39 percent. On line at bryancountynews.net, a frequent blogger posted Tuesday that 20 percent of the student population was out with the flu.

Lord have mercy, the enemy is after our kids, isn’t he?

Heavenly Father we ask for your grace and mercy for this child and the parents, in Jesus’ precious name. We thank you for speedy healing of this virus, and any infection that may result.

“3 You keep him in perfect peace
whose mind is stayed on you,
because he trusts in you.
4 Trust in the LORD forever,
for the LORD GOD is an everlasting rock.” Isa 26:3-4

“3 For he will deliver you from the snare of the fowler
and from the deadly pestilence.
4 He will cover you with his pinions,
and under his wings you will find refuge;
his faithfulness is a shield and buckler.
5 You will not fear the terror of the night,
nor the arrow that flies by day,
6 nor the pestilence that stalks in darkness,
nor the destruction that wastes at noonday.” - Ps 91:3-6

“9 Because you have made the LORD your dwelling place—
the Most High, who is my refuge—
10 no evil shall be allowed to befall you,
no plague come near your tent.” - Ps 91: 9-10

We thank you for the FULL armor of God that you have provided for us, for this patient and for his/her worried parents.

In Jesus’ name,
Amen

Here’s another interesting thread about

Getting Swine Flu A Second Time

http://www.singtomeohmuse.com/viewtopic.php?t=3682

Here’s an article about getting swine flu for a second time

Post subject: Re-Infections of Swine Flu

http://www.recombinomics.com/News/10080901/H1N1_Buffalo_2.html

Buffalo School Outbreaks Raise H1N1 Re-Infection Concerns
Recombinomics Commentary 12:42
October 8, 2009

There are no confirmed cases of Swine Flu at J.F.K. High in the Cheektowaga-Sloan School District. But on Tuesday, about one fifth of the student body was home sick; including 27 students who were sent home after they got to school.

“It’s basically flu-like symptoms we’re seeing,” said Jacquelyn Astyk, the school nurse at J.F.K. “Our upsurge followed our homecoming week where a lot of students were together for activities and also with events in the community for Halloween, the haunted houses and that. Students are being together and we’re seeing an increase in the flu symptoms

In the Iroquois Central School District, about 18-percent of its student body was out sick Tuesday.

The above comments describe two major flu outbreaks at schools in the Buffalo, NY area (see map). This area had widespread confirmed cases in the spring, and raise concerns that those infected in the spring are being re-infected in the fall. These protection failures raise concerns that the vaccine directed against spring sequences will fail to protect against re-infection.

These re-infections are not limited to the Buffalo area. Earlier reports described a second wave in Mexico in regions which were impacted in the spring, and anecdotal reports describe the same individuals infected in the spring and fall or twice in the fall.

Although re-infections have been noted in immune-compromised patients, the re-infections in areas like Buffalo appear to involve previously healthy individuals.

The re-infections could be linked to weak immune-responses to earlier infections, which may have been influenced by anti-viral treatment. However, this does not appear to be the case in patients infected with milder course that do not involve fever, because most do not believe they are infected with swine flu and the recover without treatment.

These re-infections may be linked to antigenic drift, which may be enhanced by infections with multiple sub-clades, either via mixtures within an infectious dose, or multiple infections due to high levels of circulating virus and efficient transmission.

School outbreaks have been widespread, and closing of entire school districts in select states like TX, TN, KY have highlighted the rapid spread of H1N1 leading to double digit absenteeism rates such as those described above.

These re-infections raise concerns because of increased drift, as seen in the latest CDC report on an H1N1 with a reduced titer, as well as the increasing detection of H1N1 with H274Y, conferring oseltamivir resistance, or PB2 E627K favoring growth at a lower temperature.

More information on the frequency of re-infections would be useful, although the limited testing of mild cases limits lab confirmations of such re-infections.
