Bird Flu Symptoms

Posted by GruntDoc on December 1st, 2005

Just so you know: there have not been any cases of bird flu in the US. That having been said, there’s a lot of work going on to get ready for it.

Today: how to tell if you have bird flu

Center for Disease Control has released a list of symptoms of bird flu. If you experience any of the following, please seek medical treatment immediately:

1. High fever

2. Congestion

3. Nausea

4. Fatigue

5. Aching in the joints

6. An irresistible urge to crap on someone’s windshield.

Heh.
