Panicked people are even purchasing this preventative off the Net [5] from foreign countries. We have only to remember China's melamine-food debacle [6] two years ago to see this may not be smart. You also have to decide if you're OK with mercury in the vaccine [7].
With a clear relationship established between pneumonia and swine flu [8], one option is to get a pneumonia shot. They last at least 5-7 years – some provide lifetime protection – and may fight off the worst swine flu complications. Since half of H1N1 victims drown [9] in lung fluid, this would seem a clever move. Stan and I took pneumonia shots two years ago with no side effects, not even a sore arm.
If you're wary of the H1N1 vax, consider this shot combined with good hygiene and proper pandemic precautions [10]. A month ago I noted that Lysol [11] is a tool of good hygiene and kills 99.9% of flu viruses. Lysol now incorporates this message into their ads. These measures allow you to ride out the flu season without questionable vaccines or panic.
Here's the new takeaway: We don't know if this National Emergency declaration sets the stage for quarantine or what. Though just 1,000 people have died from swine flu in the U.S., CDC Director Dr. Thomas Frieden states that "many millions" [12] have been infected. This is just the first wave of H1N1 though the beginnings of the second wave has hit Canada [13]. Should this disease mutate into a more deadly form, it could deliver devastating blows, which was the case during the 1918 Spanish flu pandemic. As discussed in Dare To Prepare [10] if enough people become ill, it has the potential to affect utilities operations (water, sewer, etc.), food and fuel transport, garbage removal, and every other critical infrastructure area we depend on daily. It would be extremely clever to make sure you have plenty of water, food, medical supplies on hand. Don't forget your pets. Florida already has plans in place to turn people away from hospitals [14] should the flu scenario overwhelm them. Plan to be at home unless you are extremely ill. There are no excuses to leave yourself vulnerable. Get ready now.
