“Superflu” or same old flu? How subclade K influenza is playing
out worldwide
A fast-spreading strain of influenza A (H3N2), known as subclade
K, has fuelled headlines warning of a possible “superflu”. The
reality is more nuanced, scientists say.

Masked Man's PERSONAL NOTE: I assume when they tell you a
vaccine is going to be less effective they should
proportionately tell you to wear a mask more.. they seem to be
talking slightly more about masks in the aforementioned
articles..Now that they know the shot won't protect them as well
hopefully they won't be as lazy and more people are advised to
mask more... right?
The 2nd. article aforementioned above seems to believe that
nursing mothers should wear masks only at home when
breastfeeding...
I guess the logic is that the mother does'nt have to wear a mask
in public but only around her baby when she breast feeds?..yeah
of course we should mask around babies if we think we are sick
but let's mask to protect ourselves before we get sick! This is
ludicrous to not wear a mask in public and expose oneself to the
super flu if you have a baby or any loved one for that matter
...this is an airborne illness and viruses linger in the air for
hours...
Wear a Mask in public as well so ya don't get the Super Flu so
you don't get sick and so you are strong and healthy enough to
take care of your baby at home.. also the article doesn't make
any sense ..Who was taking care of the baby? Were those taking
care of the baby wearing a mask? So wear a mask around your baby
too incase baby has the super flu esspecially if you left your
baby around others to care for it while the Super Flu is going
around!
I guess I post these articles for the other information the
articles contain...
Again why not recommend people wear masks to prevent the illness
rather than recommending people to only mask after they get
sick!? Its important to mask if you are sick and have symptoms
but its also important to mask in order to prevent getting sick.
Keep in mind it's a lot easier wearing a mask if you aren't
throwing up or sick. I guess these articles fail to recommend
masking to prevent the infection to begin with.
Why on earth would anybody fail to reccomend masking as a
legitmate way to help prevent airborne illness and airborne
diseases when something as dangerous as the super flu is going
around?
Here's the deal the doctor says:
“You might still get the flu if you’ve gotten the flu vaccine
but you’re less likely to have a severe illness and you’re less
likely to die or be hospitalized,” Dr. O’Dea said.
...The Masked Man says fair enough that might be true and so is
the following: “You might not get the flu at all if you wear an
N95 mask and if you mask you’re less likely to die or be
hospitalized because you had your mask on and never got
infected,” The Masked man says publicly. I challenge doctors to
go on major network and say otherwise and correct me The Masked
Man if I am wrong about N95 masks because I'm not! I don't
understand why doctors aren't sharing with the public the life
saving virus preventing feature of the N95 Mask!
I'm not a doctor but I'm willing to share what helps prevent
airborne illness:
Masking helps prevent the flu by acting as a physical barrier to
respiratory droplets that carry the virus,
The Masked Man
P.S.
Why don't more doctor's recommend the N95 mask..They took a
Hippocratic oath to prevent airborne illnesses whenever possible
didn't they!? What's their problem with N95 Masks!?
Does the medical association not recognize the N95 Mask or the
scientific findings associated with N95 Mask usage as helpful in
preventing airborne illness and airborne disease amongst the
public?
What's the problem many doctor's have with the wearing N95 Masks
to prevent airborne illness and airborne diseases!? Why don't I
see more doctors recommending N95 Masks publicly? I don't get
it. Seems dishonest to omit the N95 in these reports because it
is one thing tha has been scientifically proven to help prevent
the infection itself of the illness we are wanting to prevent.
Masked Man doesn't understand and will never understand doctor's
omission of the wonders of using an N95 Mask to help protect
patients against airborne illness and airborne diseases. What's
the doctor's excuse for not recommending N95 Masks?
Here's the dose of reality the press and doctors are
publicising: Why sugar coat it after they have already stated an
emergency? They call it super flu..Basically they are saying we
are in a state of emergency and they are giving us all medical
advice..are they not? We are talking about something they call
a Super Flu! Let me put it to the know it alls straight, The
press and doctors are terming it a 'Super Flu' and so that
implies there is an outbreak and so I interpret the as a time to
safeguard ourselves all the way with everything trick in the
book and it sounds like a good thing to be scared enough to
mask...
... If this is indeed a Super Flu and there are outbreaks we
should behave as if its a big deal .. its really quite simple:
If you wear a mask and I wear a mask we just might not catch
this thing! We aren't out of the woods yet! The fact is this:
The press and doctors are officially warning us! The press and
the doctors are reporting to us publicly that we are having an
outbreak which is an emergency at least they are heavily hinting
at that..(By the way I'm not the one here reporting a state of
emergency.. the press and the doctors are)..Its a super flu
defined so by these experts who are coming forward to advise us
medically.. That's a term meant to scare us so they got me.. I'm
concerned. They have convinced me we might be in trouble So
what's the plan? My plan is to protect one another! I wear my
mask for the super flu. No problem. I'll do my part just incase
we are really in trouble. According to the news and the doctors
we are in trouble. So I say if its that bad then protect
yourselves to the fullest. I doubt they are crying wolf.. I
wouldn't downplay it with the preventative measures ..
...I do know this: it is crazy professionally to state to the
people we are having a problem with flu outbreak and not also
recommend masking amongst all the other medical advice given in
the face of such immediate emergency. For one thing it is
physically impossible for that many people to do all those
things safely without a mask that they are suggesting and in the
time frame they are seeking. And the second thing is the sheer
numbers involved: It's inadequate and not enough to suggest that
only those who feel sick need to mask. That is sheer lunacy in a
real outbreak to think only the sick should mask.. in a real
outbreak you want the healthy ones to mask so they don’t get
sick while all this is going on ..and all I know is I personally
consider real Super Flu outbreaks as maskworthy events . I
believe in masking anyway. I can't believe masking isn't more
heavily recommended in these aforementioned articles once people
start crying outbreak or once they start crying at all. People
better wise up and take it seriously enough to mask if you ask
me.
