Preventive swine flu treatment better concentrated on the young

[Guest guest]

Researchers have confirmed that treating everyone who gets swine flu with antiviral drugs should reduce people's symptoms and slow the spread of the virus. But they also say that preventive treatment might be more effective if given mainly to younger people. Treating older people who've been exposed to the virus but aren't showing symptoms is less likely to slow the spread of flu.

Is it just me but I find it interesting/suspicious that this virus is more of a threat to those with a STRONGER immune system. Naturally-generated organisms normally thin out the population by attacking the weak preferentially. Is it possible that H1N1 is not naturally generated or is the government trying to degenerate the populus by vaccinating all of us?--- On Thu, 7/30/09, Clare <theclaremcharris wrote:
