Yep. No crown until confirmed as H1N1. And I hope this wasn't the bug you took with you to Africa.

You might be Patient Zero for some folks at real risk of death from the flu.

Responses:

and since CDC isn't doing testing of influenza A swabs any more, ST is not gonna have a Patient Zero under your rules. -- nm - loosiflu May 30, 15:09 45
- Wrong!!! If someone has to get admitted to the hospital it can still happen. Loosikilljoy! -- nm - ? Redmond May 30, 15:10 44
  - Which normally only happens to very young children, the elderly, or people with issues like HIV. -- nm - loosiflu May 30, 15:11 43
    - Or Mexicans. -- nm - mara May 30, 15:16 8
      - ha!!! trick answer! CDC doesn't test Mexicans. -- nm - loosiflu May 30, 15:17 7
        
        Are they racists? Surely a Mexican national in the US and exhibiting symptoms of H1N1 *could* end up being tested by the CDC. -- nm - TWuG May 30, 15:20 6
        
        If they get tested, it's not because they're Mexican. It's because they fit the other criteria. -- nm - loosiflu May 30, 15:21 5
        
        So the CDC DOES test Mexicans. You said they didn't, now you say they do. Which is it? -- nm - TWuG May 30, 15:22 4
        
        mara said OR mexican. that's not how it works. -- nm - loosiflu May 30, 15:23 3
        
        And I meant that they should be included on the list of who gets admitted to hospitals. -- nm - mara May 30, 15:24 2
        
        I don't think being Mexican alone will get you admitted to a hospital for swine flu. :) -- nm - loosiflu May 30, 15:27 1
        
        No but it will get you a Supreme Court Nomination. -- nm - ? Redmond May 30, 15:28
    - You are not getting ST Patient Zero status. You just have to deal with it. - ? Redmond May 30, 15:13 33
      - but you admit that I actually have swine flu. -- nm - loosiflu May 30, 15:14 32
        
        Why would he admit something you haven't had confirmed? You *may* have it, but you can't say with complete certainty. - TWuG May 30, 15:21 23
        
        Exactly! -- nm - ? Redmond May 30, 15:23
        
        shush, we're just bickering. - loosiflu May 30, 15:22 21
        
        You DON'T really have it!!! -- nm - ? Redmond May 30, 15:27 20
        
        my doctor says I do! -- nm - loosiflu May 30, 15:27 19
        
        She was wrong once already!! Not a stretch she is wrong twice. She's a quack -- nm - ? Redmond May 30, 15:29 18
        
        she changed her mind based on facts, unlike some people I know. -- nm - loosiflu May 30, 15:30 17
        
        Strongly suspecting |= 100% certain. No crown for you! -- nm - TWuG May 30, 15:33 13
        
        I know I can't have the crown. - loosiflu May 30, 15:35 12
        
        He can't admit what isn't proved to be fact. You are asking him to accept your faith as fact when it is no such thing. -- nm - TWuG May 30, 15:37 10
        
        what would be freaky is if I had regular Flu A. -- nm - loosiflu May 30, 15:38 4
        
        Since you have a positive test for Influenza A. YOU DO! -- nm - ? Redmond May 30, 15:41 3
        
        nope. it's a rarity right now. -- nm - loosiflu May 30, 15:42 2
        
        Then go buy a lottery ticket. You beat the odds. -- nm - ? Redmond May 30, 15:43 1

        :) This is her trying to break my will. I am going to hold strong. -- nm - ? Redmond May 30, 15:37 4
        
        Men are so illogical. - loosiflu May 30, 15:39 3
        
        Logic is not on your side in this argument. -- nm - TWuG May 30, 15:45 2
        
        actually it is, as long as I don't need 100% certainty. -- nm - loosiflu May 30, 15:46 1

        Never!! -- nm - ? Redmond May 30, 15:37
        
        Facts are a positive test. Not, it might be -- nm - ? Redmond May 30, 15:31 2
        
        I have a positive test for Flu A. Ha! and you're ignoring the facts. - loosiflu May 30, 15:34 1
        
        You don't have swine flu unless you have a test result positive. Move along now until we have a real Patient Zero. Poser! -- nm - ? Redmond May 30, 15:36
        
        It's never going to happen baby. I thought I had it, and it turned out to be fools gold. Unless you get a positive test, I ain't falling for - ? Redmond May 30, 15:15 7
        
        See, that's your problem. You being wrong don't make me wrong. -- nm - loosiflu May 30, 15:15 6
        
        RC, give me a ruling! -- nm - loosiflu May 30, 15:17 5
        
        No no no. You don't get to have swine flu. I don't care if your partner in crime bestows fake Swine Status on you. - ? Redmond May 30, 15:18 4
        
        you have such a complex. *you're* the hypochondriac, *I* have an excellent - loosiflu May 30, 15:19 3
        
        I had something. I can not hypochondriac a 103 fever. You don't get to have swine flu. Sorry Charlie -- nm - ? Redmond May 30, 15:22 2
        
        ok, so you're inaccurate. I'm not. -- nm - loosiflu May 30, 15:23 1
        
        No swine flu for you -- nm - ? Redmond May 30, 15:24
