Down Here.. A young girl had suspected Swine Flu, and the paramedics were called, but when hey got there, they had refused to treat her, or take her to hospital.
In the nicest possible way, unless she had underlying health issues what were they expected to do?
If they had taken her to hospital how many more peeps could of potentially been infected? Not to mention taking up an isolation room.
As far as I’m aware paramedics aren’t able to perscribe Tamiflu. The usual treatment for flu is rest, plenty of fluids & regular paracetamol.
Sadly flu kills approx 8,000 peeps every year. They have given it a new title & pressed the panic button.
