Swine flu
My granddaughter, Abi, has type A flu, which is assumed to be swine flu. She doesn't feel good, but she's OK. She started Tamiflu tonight so she should be fine. I was around her Saturday evening. The CDC says you are contagious one day before you show symptoms - so hopefully, I wasn't exposed. Her mom and Emma were here last night, but neither of them have symptoms yet, so hopefully, they didn't expose Gary.
I'm pretty sure I had the swine flu in 1976 - my daughter was a baby - about 4 weeks old - she was born Oct. 5, when I had a terrible case of the flu. I was nursing her so if it was the swine flu, maybe she got antibodies and she won't get it now. Maybe I won't get it either. Since I teach at a University, I'm exposed to students all day, every day.......
I'll keep you all posted.
