If you get early symptoms, then Tamiflu is apparently a good antibiotic against it .. but anyone delaying getting their treatment will find that tamiflu decreases in effectiveness the longer you wait.
I read this too (on a different site).
I wonder why the people in Mexico are dieing form it and no one else.
Better treatment maybe ?
I also read that some people get it get over it and don’t even realize they had it.
