Swine Flu

Swine flu affects widely in America.Around 150 people are infected by swine flu,including 20 death in Mexico.The spread of H1N1 is quite fast and involves a lot of countries such as Mexico,USA,UK,New Zealand etc.

It may let people associate the disease with SARS.Well,I could say that it is not such a horrible thing as swing flu could be cured by Tamiflu and Relenza.Meanwhile,it could have some ways to prevent it too.swineflu(1)

  • Take respirator/face mask when you’re in public places.
  • Keep hands and body clean.
  • Be more frequent to clean up the litter bin.
  • Cook pork under a high temperature(over 71.1℃) for a longer time because the virus could be killed at that situation.

The symptoms of swine flu is quite the same as normal flu:cough,fever,sore throat,diarrhea,vomiting and so on.So if you live in an infected area and you got the same symptoms,you’d better to have a careful check-up in the hospital to secure your life.

If you don’t live at such an area,I don’t think you need to be too worry about it because the disease is still controllable and treatable.

Google Maps open up a Swine Flu (H1N1) Outbreak Map.People are warned to not visit the particular places temporarily.
