Yeah but what to do about the zombies?Also I get through garlic at an almost scary rate, good to know it'll help ward off viruses as well as vampires.

Yeah but what to do about the zombies?
Fire. Shotguns. Improvised explosives. You know, the usual stuff.
thats an absolutely fantastic list thanks!
i'm going to make up a store of some of this stuff just in case, as far as i can gather if the excessive immune response part of it can be dealt with the swine flu should be fairly manageable
another interesting thing is that brown rice might be a bad idea
despite being highly nutritious a lot of brown rice that is available, even the organic stuff, has high levels of arsenic which studies have shown can negatively affect our response to flu
in fact it said that it meant that people had an initially weak immune response which was then followed by an excessive cytokine response - which would be pretty grim in the case of swine flu
Listen right, if you're going to have containers of swine flu on trains then at least try not letting them explode, mkay?

check (i can do almost 1 head every meal), check (3 cups a day), and check (fresh vegetable juice from the local caffee, best source)
but the ganja i'm not ready to cut out even if it's bad for the immune system.

You mean 'clove' rather than 'head', right? Because otherwise that just doesn't bear thinking about...

Well, the Doc got swine flu so he's on house confinement for two weeks; trying to get the Tamiflu has been a joke - there's two (legal) suppliers in South London, one chemist in New Cross and the other in Streatham. No wonder it's been spreading so fucking fast, people have to fucking travel halfway across the city to get their fucking antivirals. Beggars belief really.

Sorry to hear that Sloane.
Hopefully he has a good strong doctor's immune system from picking up hospital superstrains for years...From what I've heard the meds won't do much anyway, so don't break your back trying to get em. The the Mexicans and Americans who've had it say that the meds don't alleviate the symptoms much.

Kidney infection you need antibiotics.

Yeah he's fine, just bored with being locked in the house. It's operating kinda like malaria rather than a flu - temperature rises twice a day during the afternoon, no obvious symptoms other than lethargy, and it's gone on forever, seven days now and still going.
Tamiflu just cuts a day off the illness apparently, and stops other drastic symptoms should they arise.
Careful about that if it is a kidney infection fourfiveone, they're really horrible if you don't nip them in the bud early.
well in america people say a head of garlic. as opposed to Gettin Some Head, which is either the act of receiving felatio, or a dope motherfucking track by Three Six Mafia.

Sure, I wasn't thinking of oral sex (for once).
I just assumed you meant one clove of garlic:
per meal, rather than one whole head/bulb of garlic:
per meal.
But if you really do mean putting almost a whole bulb of garlic in each meal then I take my hat off to you. From a respectful distance!
Also, I never head anything about weed being bad for the immune system, so I guess you can smoke away...think of it in mediaeval terms, like using the smoke of precious incense to drive away 'bad airs'.

oh Mr. Tea i absolutely mean an entire (or nearly entire) HEAD of garlic in one meal, usually what, 10 cloves or so? and RAW. i just peel them, and then i eat them. preferrably with Jiao Ze (chinese dumplings), but goes with pretty much anything salty.
i don't usually do this because i realize the smell is pretty crazy strong for the rest of the day, and makes my girlfriend wince a bit, but if it comes down to my health or not offending people on the tube, you know which one's got to GO! (last 3 words with chris rock accent)
but from what i know tobacco and the sensi both do deplete the body of vitamins, and break down the immune system... as does most recreational drugs and alcohol.

Yeah, weed is bad for the old immune system.
