What is the infection period for swine flu?
Say for example you 'were in contact' with someone that has now got it.
Contact was Saturday/Sunday and as of Sunday night they felt ill. Now today they pretty much definitely have it.
Am I going to die?
Please tell me they are only infectious once they have the symptoms?

I thought I had it then someone said 'if there's £50 note on the floor, could you reach down & pick it up' if you can then you've not got swine flu!!
Im totally fucked just now though, passed out yestarday on the train & almost stuck my nut through the doors

The infectious period for a confirmed case is defined as 1 day prior to the onset of symptoms to 7 days after onset.

I am more concerned with being in bed over this festive period. I assume if I get sick then I really shouldn't go visit the grandparents

Swine flu made a reappearance?! My swine flu vaccine left me with a dead arm for a week. I imagine the swine flu to be less annoying. Stop panicking!!

no such thing as swine flu, just something made up by the corrupt US politians who funnily enough also owned most the medical companies who supplied the vaccines.
Yes there was a different strain, but it is no worse than normal flu.
