Johnny's H1N1 outbreak?!

[SunshineSlayer]

Don't know how many have been following this, but a surprising number of Johnny's have all been diagnosed with the H1N1 flu strain recently. (aka. swine flu)

So far the following people have been diagnosed: Nishikido Ryo, Yamashita Tomohisa, Yokoyama Yu, Shirota Yu, Koike Teppei and Yasuda Shota. Ookura Tadayoshi is also suspected to have it but the diagnosis hasn't been confirmed yet.

All are members of either Kanjani 8 or NEWS. Nishikido Ryo is a member of both groups and was the first diagnosed, so it seems to point to him being the cause of the spread among just those two groups so far. Still quite crazy I think!

OMG! That's so nuts. Hope they all get better, Ryo and Yamapi are my faves!

[KarenPang]

yeah it's really terrible

Okura is not down with H1N1 but rather he was striked down by the flu & most recently I heard that it's KAT-TUN's Akanishi's turn to be supposedly down with flu

it's awful , I think the weather in Japan's currently not very good

Yamada Yu - well I hope Shun Oguri will take good care of her haha

[SunshineSlayer]

Okura it seems they are still not sure about it. He tested negative for H1N1 but then again so did another member who took the test a second time a few days later and it came back positive.

I'll definitely be getting my h1n1 shot before I head to Tokyo in a few weeks!

[ll moments ll]

question! i've been wondering about this for a while, actually, but is H1N1 the same as Influenza Type A?

because most the cases are saying Influenza Type A...not exactly the words H1N1/Swine Flu...with the Johnny's.

I BET RYO SPREAD IT ALL. LOLOLOL.

[KarenPang]

let's see , according to wikipedia about Influenza Type A

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Influenza_A_virus

I think they meant the same thing in that when they talked about Influenza Type A = Swine Flu since they grouped it under the same umbrella

that's the problem . I'm not a doctor & as so , those medical terms can get very confusing @_@

Okura it seems they are still not sure about it. He tested negative for H1N1 but then again so did another member who took the test a second time a few days later and it came back positive.

are you referring to Yokoyama You ?

he was also sick with flu but they didn't mentioned whether is it H1N1 or not

[SunshineSlayer]

Yes, I meant Yokoyama Yu but accidently wrote Yamada Yu. According to the article I just read his is the Type A as well - but yeah whether it's H1N1 isn't always clear.

I believe its the H1N1 - with all of them going down around the same time they would likely have the same strain and it was Yamashita and Ryo - the first two diagnosed - that they specifically said h1n1 for.

Maybe they shouldn't sleep together so much...


j/k j/k the flu's pretty serious, I hope they get better

LOL that's why I was wondering how come I saw Yamada's name on the list where she's dominated by Johnny's

from what I know , Koike Teppei's not a Johnny since his solo works & the works he does with WaT are produced by Universal

yeah Sabrina , the weather in Japan's very bad right now

The weather has had a dramatic shift recently, was low 30's, high 20's C in September but now it's mid to low 20's. Also typhoon season is going strong so it's bringing in quite a bit of rain.

[ll moments ll]

ahh, alright. thanks for the info!
so it is H1N1 after all, eh? how scary!

but yeah, there's something going around the KAT-TUN rumor mill with Akanishi having the flu, though it's not confirmed as of right now (not surprising since Jin is friends with YamaPi, Ryo, & D-BOY Shirota Yu. all of them had Type A).

[KarenPang]

Kanjani8's Yasuda & Yokyoyama have returned back to work & are in the pink of good health now - http://community.livejournal.com/kanjani8/2459594.html

Okura's still recuperating at home but that's a relief to know for the guys

[waterballoon]

Ryo Nishikido can spread his H1N1 virus to me anytime baby.

And Sunshine, I hope you get your shot asap! Take care of yourself while you're at Tokyo too~

[Polyrhythm]

I think I had swine flu myself. I was sick for 3 days in total and now I'm good again....still coughing a bit but overall fine.

[Beauty4123]

as long as my baby didn't get the flu, i'm content

Thanks, I'll be careful. And lol about Nishikido.

^ You're welcome,

But have they all recovered? It's quite a disgusting disease, so thankfully the vaccines/shots are gonna be ready very soon.

[SunshineSlayer]

^ As far as I can tell, it seems that all are recovering well. It's just alarming that it actually took down an entire j-pop group more or less.
