Hmmm.
Muscle aches and joint pains, sore throat and headache, some nausea.  Temp 39.3.

And I'm on annual leave this week  :furious:

Boo...  :thumbsdown:

If its any consolation most crags are sopping messes at the moment...

You're the first person in ages I've heard of getting it (or maybe having it) - have the # of cases nosedived in the last few weeks? Or is the media just more snow obsessed at the moment?

Tons of web-sites supposedly tracking this, here's oneBB links to another resourece which is just a PDF from one week, but using the URL and a few clicks will get you to Health Protection Agency : Pandemic (H1N1) 2009 influenza: surveillance and epidemiology where you can waste hours poring over numbers, rates and graphs.

Hope you're not too unwell GCW, sucks being ill on holiday  :thumbsdown:

May not be SF, could just be some viral thing.  Although last week on nights I saw a possible case, although he wasn't referred as such.

I'm going to ring Infection Control tomorrow- just wonder if they'd do a swab (I know it'll make no difference, but it'd be nice to know).



EDIT:  WTF did you do with those quotes, Slackers?

Might be worth checking if you can claim back leave with a doctor's note, i know you can at out place.

Yes you can, but this post finishes at the start of Feb and I have to give 3 weeks notice.
So effectively I won't be able to take it.

The way things are going I'll be off all next week anyway.  You can only claim back money on untaken leave that is en lieu (ie bank hols worked).

I'm sure that the makers of that hand cleaning gel stuff did Ok out of it too, judging by how much of that crap is lying unused around our offices alone.
