We had the delight of an email from our wondrous HR(that's on a par with the Stig joke) informing us on Friday that a case of swine Flu has been confirmed on the 6th floor of our building. We are on the 7th floor. Amongst the things to do and not to do, were not to come in if you think you have any symptoms but go to your doctor. As I am having to attend the doctors once a fortnight at the moment, and spend at least the obligatory waiting time of 20 minutes for my appointment, I am very familiar with the posters plastered across notice boards which categorically state not to come in to the surgery if you think you have flu, as no antibotics will help.The advice is to stay at home, drink plenty and so on. If symptoms persist or worsen, ask for a home visit. When I told our wondrous HR this, the comment was 'well we don't want people coming in here spreading it'. I told her that as this is not the advice being given out by general practitioners, perhaps she should try again.
