In addition, you need a prescription to buy TamiFlu. Buying it on the black market would be a bad idea - you have no way of knowing if it's what they say it is.

The other thing that annoys me is that TamiFlu is fixed in the media eye as the only flu drug, which isn't true. And if it's better than the others, it's not by very much.

That said, I am considering putting a mesh over the chicken run to keep wild birds out (and one pesky flying chicken in).

  Remember Y2K!

Our ' media ' thrive on catastrophysing and are doing a fine job again with this avian flu thing.

Remember this: The ' view/opinion ' of US doctors reflects only the pharmaceutical line...and it is the latter who will benefit, IF we over-react.

is not stockpiling, mostly because we haven't talked
about it. Caren
