Its stories like this where I am constantly reminded - that our Gov't far too often forgets who they work for. They get power. They love the power - and they revel in keeping the "little people" in the dark. They are not our "leaders" they are our representatives. They work for us. They don't "rule" over us. Every now and then, they need to be reminded of that.

Here's one reason I'm staying home as much as I have lately:

We had one come to work sick as hell and 6 more caught the bug, so we told them if sick STAY HOME.

Thank you brother. Take care of yourself and have a safe trip.

Daughter started with a cough and a fever. Mine started yesterday with a cough and a runny nose.

I've seen those, years ago I wondered why they died so young, before I learned of 1918 flu...

I had an amiable debate with WULK about his contentions of the Spanish Flu's origins:

I guess your opinion is as good as mine as to what or where the Spanish flu originated depending on the source we use.
Here is one wild hypothesis from my family’s lore:
My Grandfather was a physician & having lost their 2nd & last child (my uncle), to the Spanish flu, my Grandmother forever blamed Europeans for having allowed a bug to escape from a lab since Europeans were actively engaged in chemical & biological warfare in WWI (In the 13 hundreds, the Mongols catapulted bodies infected with the Black Death into Crimean cities) & it’s for this reason I’ve always been interested in this subject.

What seems certain is that the Spanish flu did not originate in Spain where it acquired the name when the Spanish press 1st started reporting this tragedy & immediately afterwards, our press went into the panic mode when it reached our East coast & subsequently the German press also reported being infected by the Spanish Flu.

But guess what? Britain & France seemed to be immune to the Spanish flu when everyone else around them was dying by the thousands& it was not until the Spanish flu had reached worldwide endemic proportions that the Brits & French grudgingly admitted having some Spanish flu deaths.​
Go figure.
Best Regards

Notice that the Spanish Influenza was the last mass-killer before auto "pollution" was concentrated enough to kill off all the rest of these viruses.

The Spanish flu was a live virus vaccine - it wiped out half of an English City which was vaccinated with it, my Grandmothers were always against vaccines for that reason. Many US soldiers who died of it had never left US shores - it is the vaccines which are killing us -

Take care of yourself, Tor. My daughter had it too and had to go in for fluid IV. It took her quite a while to get through it.

I won't take the flu shot. I have in the past, but when a vaccine is only 10% effective I see no reason to take it.

At an old cemetery in a rural area here in NE there are a lot of old gravestones marked with the names and ages of young children. One family lost the mother and 3 children within two weeks. The people there said it was from diphtheria. Good old days? NOT!!!

There are epidemics of many diseases that we thought were almost gone: scarlet fever, mumps, measles, tuberculosis .... brought in by those 10 thousands of refugees Obama invited into our country. No accident at all.

Our doctor said it's 30% effective for the 'bad' kind but if you get the flu shot and then get the flu, it won't be as bad. I read an article that said the majority of deaths were of those who didn't get the shot or were ill to begin with...COPD, heart condition, etc.

Oh for God's sake. Now this is Obama's fault??? Remember the panic about Ebola?? You thought we were all going to die. The only ones who got it were care givers. Give it a rest.
