Vitriolic diagnosed with swine flu

Several of Vitriolic Gaming's players are recovering from H1N1 swine flu after contracting the virus while in Spain.

The Norwegian team were on show at the GameGune event in Bilbao last week, having crashed out of the competition in the group stages after finishing behind k1ck and oXmoze.

Vitriolic allegedly caught the virus when Karl William "kalle" Haraldsen, who had flown separately from the team to Bilbao, joined up with the rest of the squad.

"We all got infected, some worse than others," Tommy "tacky" Mosegaard told Catch-Gamer.com "We all got infected when we met up with kalle, who was sick. He came from Malaga with the flu. During day two everyone had problems eating, and after that it just got worse and worse."


Michael "mikkis" Sokki is currently the only team player in the hospital as he is undergoing medical exams.

"I am feeling good now, its was worse at GameGune. I was at the hospital in Bilbao before the competition started," Haraldsen told HLTV.org

"mikkis is in the hospital now and he is getting better every day so we hope he will get online soon."

There's always the lung-disease of H1N1 which 1-2% catches. Perfectly healthy people from 15-30, most of the times... this one is dangerous so I heard.

Indeed. From what i've seen over 90% of cases are dealt with. In Portugal 100% of the infected people recovered, so far.

thats not the point. even if people dont die, they get sick. and in UK people already get killed with this virus, so dont say is overrated, cause this little virus can kill MILLIONS in africa for example. get a clue

+1. Over rated until it mutates a couple of times. Obviously its bad for the countries who arent well developed medically - but more deaths occur from seasonal flu than swine flu.

Old people? It seems you have no clue of what YOU're talking about. Yearly thousands of regular, sometimes perfectly healthy, old and young people die off regular flue, is the deathcount of swine flu even in tripple digits? Get your medical facts right before you try to fight my argument.

Our death toll is 4 person here. I wonder how he'd get passed those health screenings at the airport? We'll be quarantined here if they detected abnormal body temperature. So it doesn't matter if we're going to China, Mexico or Sweden. It's now all over the place..

Did they shake MIRAA hand? or other players? you should wash your hands more often. no joke apart, that just a major flu but under normal circumstances and without overdo it yo your recover is granted. In panama we have 567 cases and no deaths.
