Is everyone sick stateside?

[Swedish Viking]

People here in Sweden are not only getting sick every couple of weeks, it seems, but also getting sick for 3 and 4 weeks at a time.  I've never seen so many people sick, its rediculous.  People need to stop sterilyzing there environments and start strengthening their bodies for a change.

ever noticed those jetplains that leave cloud dustings in the sky usually concentrated over one area?

going to the gym is a good way to get sick since a lot of people seems to think it's ok to workout even when they got a cold going on

US Government testing shit on us, it's a well knows issue.

yea, that disturbs me-although, I've never seen it so I don't know for sure if it's true.  Seriously, slightly off that topic now...how many people in this modern age believe in evolution?  Tons.  How many live like they believe in it.  Very few.  Everyone is creating, through forceful evolution, a very strong environment while at the same time weakening themselves.  It's no wonder people are getting sick-micro organisms are stronger than ever and more plentiful than ever-despite and BECAUSE of our attempts to kill them(it's like people using mouthwash thinking they are going to effectively kill bacteria-which they do...for about a second)
  We need to stop sterilyzing everything, we need to start letting our kids play in the dirt, we need to start farming sustainably, and we need to stop vaccinating everyone for everything-and that includes, more than anything, the flu shot.

^ Good post Viking. I remember being little and my mother would discourage me from using hand sanitizers other than soap, and I've never had a flu vaccination.

Interestingly, I rarely get sick...

I think evolution is bunk but I dont take many meds and I only get sick every few years.

Flu is going around.  It's flu season.  Has nothing to do with "hand sanitizers" or anything else.

  I think it has everything to do with hand sanitizers and everything that represents.  This cold/flu season is much worse than before and I don't see it getting any better unless people stop treating themselves like little fragile porcelain vases.

this is probably b/c its a slightly different strand then last yrs and our resistance isnt built up against this form. But I definitly agree about the evolution and antibiotics

Actually, here in Los Angeles (ok, 20 miles north of Los Angeles), more people have been sick that in the last few years. I myself, had a serious flu and cold first week of the year that sidelined me. Then kids have it, and it is a circle effect.  It is also because it has rained more in the last month than it did all of last year.  Something about the cold (ok, 40 degrees F), and rain that does it...

But as long as everyone is good for the Ironman Pro & Fit Expo, this weekend, it is good. For the next 6 days, it is projected to be nice and sunny, with the high temperate in Los Angeles about 70-80 degrees F.

It's like 20 degrees here but I've got the heat turned up to like a cozy 75.

The Flu virus is designed to kill the elderly and the weak. The numbers dead each year is rising.

"About 47,000 Americans, thousands more than previously thought, die each year from flu and another common respiratory virus called RSV"

its not necissarily designed that way its just the way that strand is the big epidemic in the late 1800's or somewhere around there "targeted" teens and young adults
