Alberta shuts down flu clinics

Doctors are diagnosing people as having swine flu and simply sending them home without prescription or anything. It's small wonder people are dying with "treatment" such as this. Words fail but this has to be borderline criminal.

in alberta we spen to much money on talk ,we should do more .We allways copy systems that have not worked just look at Auz running the system,whants the nurses to give back but hold onto his cash .Allways the same.gov erment at its worst.

what do you think about the flames and the flu shots, heads should roll.money talks A.

This flu does not 'always' need medication. My son who has asthma (and has a severe bleeding disorder) was confirmed H1N1 and was prescribed tamiflu - had no diarrhea and no vomiting (mild bouts of nausea and lung conjestion). Myself, my son, and my 6 yr old son, stayed home for over a week with cough and sore throat and extremely sore neck and back muscles - waiting for symptoms to subside before going back into the public. Tylenol for my sons, and 600 mg of ibuprofen for myself, along w/cough syrup - helped ease the symptoms.
Chances are if you have existing, chronic respiratory problems, you will receive tamiflu (which has been prescribed for other flu viruses - un-be-knownst to me prior to H1N1.
DO BUGS NEED DRUGS? Not all the time. If you feel you need more help to get thru the symptoms go to, preferably YOUR, doctor. If you are going to a medi-centre - make sure the doctor knows your medical history.
