SWINE FLU BRINGS OUT THE SWINE IN YOU. i think singaporeans can be really thick in the mind sometimes. it really really amazes me how stupid one can get.
i took a cab the other day to rush down to school and unfortunately, i flagged down an idiot of a driver. and so halfway through the journey, my nose got sensitive as usual and i sneezed.
so i sneezed, right into my ball of a fist, and then i sensed this glance of annoyance reflected in the rear view mirror of the cab.
"you should cover your mouth you know."
"erm, yeah i did?"
"your school have got swine flu cases right?"
"not sure, but i do know Republic and Nanyang does have."
"your school have, you should know that what shouldn't you?"
"well, i don't really take note of it."
and the moment i paid for my cab fare, this nice driver immediately turned down all his windows in the car before i even opened the door. seriously, you could have waiteed for me to AT LEAST alight?
now, the Swine flu is under code red because,
it spreads fast, especially due to the fact that not only humans, but pigs and birds and dogs are potential pathogens.
we do not have a cure YET, and it mutates easily due to the vast variety of pathogens available to the virus.
HOWEVER, it has the same mortality rate as a common flu.
PLUS, we do not have a death case in Singapore.
and last but not least, when we contract a viral disease,
YES, we can die if it is highly dangerous with high mortality rates. NO, we will not die if it does not have a high mortality rate, even if it is a potential death threat. and that is ESPECIALLY true when we have a good immune system.
i don't see why you swines out there are panicking when YOU are healthy enough to act like an idiot in public. even if the news is making it a headline, talking about the rise of deaths every other day, when you think about it, if a common flu was made headlines, you would see the same content.
if you are so scared of dying, but still want to earn your freaking money, why don't you wear a BIOHAZARD HOOD instead of insulting people every other day?
so all i can say is,
stupid stupid stupid.
and FYI, Ngee Ann Polytechnic has only ONE H1N1 case. ishh.
was sneezing non-stop at work today and totally listless. was sick to the extent i didn't even know what i was saying to the customers.
feeling a fever coming on later. this is so ridiculous. my body is giving up on me when i have not even given up yet. been so busy lately that i spent the past two weeks sleeping for four hours a day. though sometimes i have myself to blame when i had one or two days to head home and really rest but didn't and went out instead. then again, i don't really want to feel like i am living some lifeless life.
i was on my way back home from work and fell asleep on the bus. i dreamt that my parents used my phone to send smses to my friends regarding my death of over exhaustion. ridiculous dream, yet feasible at the rate that i am going.
i can't wait for the holidays to come. but before that, i have to make sure i pass all my common tests. so my dear body. please please please recover by tonight.
stress stress stress stress stressed.
