The swine/Pig Flu!!!

[Age of Kings]

Maybe I can claim that people are overreacting because I live in San Diego, CA, and a few local children have gotten it and I go to school with a lot of Mexicans who live in Tijuana, but no one's freaking out as can be seen in the media.

As I said previously, it's just another flu. People in Mexico are dying because, well, it's Mexico.

There shouldnt be much to worry about here. Just be clean, don have much contact with other people, wash your hands, also be in a preferrably cold area. It kills viruses since they thrive in warm environments.

I'm sure this will soon be under control and not many, if at all, flights are going to and from Mexico. Dont be careless about it, but there isnt much need to freak out over it. Just watch out.

Their letting my family go.
But then again, they're only going to Mexico to do a Plane Switchover to Los Angeles.

So they shouldn't be there too long to get it.
And they wash ALOT.

Well, just to let you know, the airport is the best place to get it. Not trying ot make you worry, just dont be careless Its good that they wash a lot though.

I'm pretty worried about it, too. Especially while I'm at school, you know how teenagers are. It's not sanitary. *shudders*

[Sonicstud]

no need to flip out, its not as big of a deal as you think. the only reason Mexico is having such a problem with it is because there is a lot of people without health care.

why would you be scared of the flu? i mean its possible to die from it but you have to have idiots taking care of you for you to die or you must have a bad case of it.

As ************************ as that sentence sounds that's what I've been telling people. The ones who died were likely rather weak and sick to begin with. Same idea if the flu was to infect babies, or AIDS people.

As for normal people, it's quite literally the flu. It's just skipped from pig to man. It grows progressively weaker each generation supposedly.

But for laughs, I wore a painter's mask to school yesterday, and I got a photo:

Yeah it's grainy I know, if you can't read it:
"Race for the Cure! (If you got the flu)" and a piggy.
