Shelf life of Tamiflu is about 4-5 years, depending on how you store it. It's not very expensive considering it can save your life, but you do need a prescription, and know when/how to take it. The governments around the world have huge stockpiles that will be expiring in about 2-3 years. It's not a good idea to tell friends/neighbors you have it unless you have cases of the stuff, because they'll tell two friends...and they'll tell two friends..., and desperate people are very dangerous. They may also laugh at you (foolish people tend to do that). If you really care about someone, you get/store it for them but don't tell them. In all honesty, this Swine flu doesn't particularly concern me at this point. The thing is spreading fast but the mortality rate is quite low. When it spreads fast and the mortality rate is also high, or when it's killing healthy adults, that's when it's time to be concerned.
