The actual tamiflu page covers this article's content in only 1 line...there have been X amount of virus samples from people with impaired immune systems who have been found to have tamiflu resistant pandemic virus. Thats all thats necessary.
All tests have been people with weak immune systems after treatment with tamiflu, not before, and it is not shown to be circulating person to person in samples tested.
The virus naturally makes imperfect copies of itself. some are bound to to be created with the resistance and eventually it will spread everywhere.. its if it spreads that matters. and none has.. on top of that.. if it DOES spread.. this article will still be pointless as in short order, due to the resistant bug surviving easier and propogating, 100% will be resistant and keeping track of individual cases will be impossible and pointless (not to mention a BIG wikipedia article). You will just have a list of every single country and a note saying has resistant flu circulating.. Seeing as this is a global flu.. keeping track by country makes no sense..as soon as someone gets on a plane the cat is out of the bag. This article should simply be a redirect to the tamiflu resistance section. where this whole article can be summed up quite simply in one line. Also .. this article is barely updated and the graph about countries with resistant flu is confusing to the reader.. a casual glance looks like resistant flu is spreading..thats not the case at this time. what do you all think? -Tracer9999 (talk) 13:14, 24 October 2009 (UTC)Reply
