It is a sure thing that Tamiflu is not a vaccine. but one of the effective medication like Relenza.
You can get information from the link below:
got my tamiflu from this website and really satisfied. expires 10/2010 and delivery took just 48 hours.
hope this helps

There is not an effective cure or vaccine for it yet, but I'm sure they are working on it. Maybe we will see some in the near future.
Just watch out for some of the symptoms of bird flu such as high fever, and coughing that doesn't go away after a long long time. |

Basically it is still quite hard for people to catch avain flu, most of those who have have been working in the poultry industry. If you are concerned, avoid poultry farms etc in your travels, but check out the WHO and CDC sites for more infromation. Be aware - just don't let worry ruin your holiday - you've still much more chance of being run over by a bus near home (providing you have buses in your area! ) |
I think this is really good advice - the media has led us into so much panic so many time - meanwhile distrating us from issues that actually may happen or have! |

Birds, just like people, get the flu. Bird flu viruses infect birds, including chickens, other poultry and wild birds such as ducks. Most bird flu viruses can only infect other birds. However, bird flu can pose health risks to people. The first case of a bird flu virus infecting a person directly, H5N1, was in Hong Kong in 1997. Since then, the bird flu virus has spread to birds in countries in Asia, Africa and Europe.
Human infection is still very rare, but the virus that causes the infection in birds might change, or mutate, to more easily infect humans. This could lead to a pandemic, or a worldwide outbreak of the illness. _________________ sumvision cyclone |
