I think the normal treatment at the moment is do-nothing unless the symptoms are really bad. This flu isn't that deadly at the moment. If symptoms are bad (pneumonia.etc.) then the pneumonia is treated appropriately and anti-viral drugs are administered. Tamiflu is the brandname of the stuff that the US has stockpiled (50M courses I think). Give the Bush-43 Admin. credit (rare) for spending $B's on pandemic preparedness.
