Swine flu FAIL

Rumble in the Jungle.

 

Using the patented Mavis Beacon "Hunt&Peck" Technique, Eddie

Bloke on the radio this morning said he called the NHS Swine Flu Advice
line.

All he got was crackling.

I have already made the greatest contribution to the fight against climate
change that I can make: I have decided not to breed. Now quit bugging me and
go and talk to the Catholics.

 

We got one this morning telling us we're not allowed to talk to anyone
about it, and who we should refer questions to.

Typical coprorate nonsense-making.

Hmmm, wonder what they have to hide?

I saw what you did there.

 

Bacon, not stirred.

 

The person sending these emails would be better off standing in the toilet
and tutting loudly when people don't bother washing their hands after
doing their business. Dirty bastards.

Strikes me this is a perfect opportunity to get all geared up and
practice for a real threat.

 

mmmmm Neneh Cherry.

 

<taps side of nose>

Ow.

Ours have issued several updates, but they're mainly focussing on the
point at which everyone's issued with their own Tamiflu packs, which
has already happened in some of our US offices. We're assured that we
have more than enough for all employees and their families, so that's
all right then.

 

Until the virus mutates and becomes Tamiflu resistant.

 

Although there have been one or two such scare stories, it's actually
very unlikely, given the mode of action, which is generically
anti-viral, rather than targetting specific strains like a vaccine
would do. It's possible, I guess, but don't forget also that, unlike
some of the antibiotic-resistant bacterial strains, the human body
does eventually kill the virus, so even if it had started to develop
some sort of resistance to Tamiflu, its survival is only prolonged by
a couple of days in one individual.
