Swine Flu Update

Sorry to be on the scary side of all this fear that's taken over recently.

There has been no deaths overnight in Mexico this past night, and Mexican officials believe that the worst is over. I don't feel much comforted. Mainland China has been doing a good job with quarantine and searching for possible infections that could have occured near the Mexican citizen who went to China for a trip. Hundreds have been quarantined in a hotel and in hospitals. I believe there have been 2 or 3 cases in Asia that have been confirmed. 6 Total in Canada.

The funny thing is, we've been calling it swine flu for so long (mind you, H1N1 Influenza A) but so far, pigs don't have the flu. And pig farmers are doing the best they can to make sure that their animals don't get the flu that the humans have.

Stay clean. Get plenty of sleep. Boost your immune system.
