I'm just Remond's back up here. I couldn't possibly care less if she actually does have H1N1, I just find it amusing that she is arguing - TWuG May 30, 15:50 4
- have you not caught on that I'm really bored? -- nm - loosiflu May 30, 15:51
- :) I might have a new strip club wing man in the making. -- nm - ? Redmond May 30, 15:50 2
  - Me? Worst wingman ever. I need a wingman to hook my wife. - TWuG May 30, 15:54 1
    - Wing men elevate both men's skills. -- nm - ? Redmond May 30, 15:56
I'm not arguing law. I'm arguing biology. -- nm - loosiflu May 30, 15:47 15
- I'm arguing fact vs supposition. - Will Hunting May 30, 15:49 14
  - biology is about probability, and I'm well inside it. -- nm - loosiflu May 30, 15:50 13
    - But you could still be a standard case of Flu A. Just because the odds are small doesn't mean you are right. - TWuG May 30, 15:53 7
      - cut down the 15% again because I got the flu shot, which covers 90% of flu A. -- nm - loosiflu May 30, 15:55 6
        
        But is it 90% effective? Maybe it targets 90% of flu A but is only 75% effective in innoculating you against those strains. Where's that put your - TWuG May 30, 15:58 3
        
        nice try! only 10% of new cases that are not H1N1 are in patients who got the shot. That means there's only 1.5% chance I have regular flu A. -- nm - loosiflu May 30, 16:02 2
        
        Exactly! You just showed you can't be sure. -- nm - ? Redmond May 30, 16:10 1
        
        in biology, there is no 100% sure. -- nm - loosiflu May 30, 16:18
        
        The flu shot was less effective this year. -- nm - ? Redmond May 30, 15:56 1
        
        completely untrue, it was ineffective last year but very effective this year. -- nm - loosiflu May 30, 15:57
    - Ya know what else is probability? Cards. and I just lost a 19:1 shot today so until you got the winner - Will Hunting May 30, 15:52
    - So was I until the failed test result -- nm - ? Redmond May 30, 15:51 3
      - I passed more tests than you. -- nm - loosiflu May 30, 15:52 2
        
        Not enough tests however. You need one more -- nm - ? Redmond May 30, 15:53 1
        
        CDC won't do the test, but they assume I have H1N1. Good enough for them. -- nm - loosiflu May 30, 15:53
