Hello GP-UK,


Anyone in doubt as to what Tamiflu really *is* see:

A business opportunity?
 
What are we really going to do with this??  It needs chucked at the patient within 48 hrs of influenza onset, and yet symptoms of common cold and influenza can be hard to discriminate.  Where is the sensitive screening test that will allow me to say "yes" this is probably flu or otherwise.  If human / avian flu does hit and does start killing folk we will just have to give it to everyone with a snuffle.
 
Make it OTC?
