Thank you for the informative post on Tamiflu. Our daughter is in a high-risk category, and we have been told she will get Tamiflu at the first sign of ILI. I have concerns about Tamiflu, but in her case, I feel her health risks are far greater without it.
We are doing all the other things mentioned as well, oscillo, vitamins, and even a big pot of homemade French Onion soup with extra garlic ;)
This may not mean much, but when the first wave “blew through” our area few weeks back, about a dozen kids we know took Tamiflu and didn’t have any negative side effects. One mom said it might have caused some diahhrea but she wasn’t sure that wasn’t from the flu
