Oh boy! Now they have found a patient in Denmark with a case of resistant swine flu. Are you shaking in your boots? Please let me rephrase that question: Are you a gullible sucker?
First of all: Resistant viruses don't exist. A virus is not a micro-organism like, for example, bacteria.
What does this news item from Denmark really mean? They treated a flu patient with Tamiflu, and it didn't do any good.
Well now... That's news? We've known for quite some time that Tamiflu doesn't work against any kind of flu. The only problem is that numerous incompetent (or corrupt) governments all over the world have bought enormous quantities of the stuff from your hard-earned tax money. And to recoup some of that money, it must be re-sold to hapless naive flu-sufferers who think you can cure the flu with (expensive) pills.

Drawing the conclusion that we are dealing with a "resistant virus" on the basis of a therapy that doesn't work (because it never works) is dumb pseudo science. But even dumber are the schmucks who believe all this nonsense.
