    Default Flu Concern

    I have visited strip clubs regularly but have tailed off recent visits due to the swine flu outbreak. Is this a concern to anyone? Public places are often a breeding ground for this type of viral transmission.

    Lest anyone doubt the seriousness of this, let's not forget about the Spanish Flu of 1918. The influenza epidemic that swept the world in 1918 killed an estimated 50 million people. One fifth of the world's population was infected. Within months, it had killed more people than any other illness in recorded history.

    It emerged in two phases. In late spring of 1918, the first phase, known as the "three-day fever," appeared without warning. Few deaths were reported. Victims recovered after a few days. When the disease surfaced again that fall, it was far more severe. Some victims died within hours of their first symptoms. Others succumbed after a few days; their lungs filled with fluid and they suffocated to death.

    It was rampant in urban and rural areas, from the densely populated East coast to the remotest parts of Alaska. Young adults, usually unaffected by these types of infectious diseases, were among the hardest hit groups along with the elderly and young children. The flu afflicted over 25 percent of the U.S. population. In one year, the average life expectancy in the United States dropped by 12 years.

    It is an oddity of history that the influenza epidemic of 1918 has been overlooked in the teaching of American history.

    For now, the current mutation of this virus is no more deadly than a usual flu outbreak. I guess the concern is that it has the potential to mutate into a strain like the 1918 flu, where people with the strongest immune systems were the ones most likely to die of the flu. The reason why it killed people with strong immune systems, is that the immune response got stuck in "attack mode" and didn't stop even after the flu germs were gone. Kind of like aids but in reverse.

    One can catch the flu with no contact. Think about pushing a shopping cart. Let the frottage continue.

    I wasn't really asking what the customers think, as I think they will be the carriers. The first response to my question was actually extremely intelligent.

    It's really the girls I was thinking about. The last time I went to a strip club, the dancer gets out a little hand sanitizer and used it in front of me. I appreciated that. I don't think guys think or care about this kind of thing....until its too late.

    The most likely way one of us would catch swine flu from work (unless we're making out with customers) is from the money, actually. I was reading about how the virus can actually stay on paper money for quite some time - so we have just as much reason to worry as a cashier, or bank teller, or anyone else who handles money and then, like, rubs their face or something.

    Note: A good friend of mine tested positive for swine flu. She was really sick for a few days but is fully back to normal now. Everyone's immune system is different!

    One of the theories concerning the lethality of the 1918 flu is the attempt to use vaccines and other injectable medicines. Also, much like the initial reporting in Mexico, the part about people dying within three days of the onset of symptoms is probably a result of people ignoring the symptoms for over a week ahead of time.

    Irrespective, there are enough people walking the Earth that it's not going to make a real difference.

    Are you joking? Come visit me as a customer, and I would happily volunteer as the next to die of the 'swine flu' . Ooops, was that overly dramatic??!
