Health Care

It simply amazes me that the public still doesn’t understand what health care reform is trying to do. It is not trying to make a government agency give you care, the reform is aimed at making the government pay for those who can not pay for health insurance regularly. The DMV isn’t going to be your doctor.

Not a worry…Swine Flu

Its slightly ironic the widespread panic that the H1N1 flu or “swine flu” was supposed to be such a widely contracted virus almost pandemic. Early flu numbers are coming back no better or worse then in previous years and swine flu has barely been on the radar.

This doesn’t mean we are out of the woods yet. Swine can still be a killer if not feeling well get checked out. Stay home and take care of yourself don’t put others at risk. Most of the time people got better without seeing a doctor. But thats only in mild cases.

The vaccine should help and but in light of such high demand producers have fallen behind in making regular flu and swine in enough quantity.

For right now things are good, only as we progress through flu season will we fully understand what we are dealing with in H1N1.
