Both my daughter and now my husand have been tested positive for the H1N1 virus. I'm not sick at all, but people at work are not coming in because I'm at work. Or they keep telling me "I don't want to get sick" and I feel so uncomfortable at work, but what do I do. I've tried to reassure them that you only catch this virus by someone coughing/sneezing around them. I have no signs what so ever and required to be at work unless i'm sick. My boss is willing to let me stay home to care for them, but with my husband not working because of this, I have to be at work, unless I get sick obviously. But like she said, Unless you are sick or taking care of someone sick, then we are required to be at work. What would you do if people look at you or don't even want to be near you because they see me as a contagious germ. I was sad at first, but now I feel mad about it. Please share with me your thought.

I would be mad at the childish actions of those co-workers who dont come to work because of you. The media has caused this situation to become totally ridiculous. Obviously you have some immunity to this flu. Why do your non sick co-workers get to stay home and you dont. Are they getting paid to not go to work.
One thing you could do, is go to your doctor for 10 minutes, get a note from the doctor saying you do not have the flu and give it to the boss. He can then assure your scared co-workers. But really, this situation is ridiculous, and the media loves it. Did your doctor give your daughter or husband anything for thier flu like Tamiflu. I have what is called Umcka and the second I start to feel sick at all I am taking some of that. Many say it works better than tamiflu does. Here is an article about Umcka, also, Sambucus boosts the immune system to keep the flu away. http://factoidz.com/the-health-ben... http://factoidz.com/fight-the-flu-...
