Swine flu is on the rise :( Start using Purell!
So it seems we may have a pandemic of swine flu virus H1N1, similar to the bird flu H5N1 that we were worried about.. this one seems to be a mix
The good news is it seems to be less virlent and susceptible to Tamiflu
What? No vaccine? What about these PSA's from the 1970's?
So you need a mask to prevent exposure.. a real one, not those surgical masks you see on the news :( Interesting that there is no mention of the way pigs get swine flu.. it's from virus in the eggs of an intestinal parasite and fecal contamination :P I did see a site worried about flies as vectors.. and that they are spraying a hog farm in mexico city thought to be the epicenter of the outbreak.. I guess we'll find out more as this progresses...
