What exactly are signs of the Swine Flu? Everything I’ve seen said the signs are no different than any other flu... just a different virus strain.
mass hysteria...all feeding into the govt’s agenda for mandatory immunization.
Vitamin D is supposed to help take care of this....
How many cases have been confirmed as H1N1?
How many cases have been confirmed as H1N1?
Sounds like a hi temp is the only verifiable “symptom”
I wouldn’t put it past college students to pull a huge prank where everyone pretends to be sick.
They might have flu but that does not make it Swine Flu
