The one thing that should be emphasized by the hospitals is that uncomplicated flu symptoms ie. runny nose, fever, body aches, non productive cough / cough with clear or white phlegm IS NOT AN EMERGENCY and SHOULD NOT COME TO THE EMERGENCY ROOM!! jeeze, people! take some tylenol and motrin, get some cough syrup and STAY HOME... if you want tamiflu call your doctor he can call in a prescription! and Tamiflu is WONDERFUL stuff, most people don't get N/V with it. just have to start it within 48hours of the onset of symptoms (within 24 hours is best) "involvedcitizen", your family member probably took it on an empty stomach, or is one of an exceedingly rare few who have an adverse reaction - don't dissuade others with a single account!

Funny, but I don't know a single form of birth control that's as cheap as $10 - birth control pills are anywhere from $60-$100 per month. Nevermind the sexist side, that insurance will cover a pill to get a man up but not to protect a woman from an unwanted pregnancy is just WRONG
Besides, that's totally off topic

Ooops...free $10.00 birth control doesn't prevent anyone from getting the flu.
