Swine Flu = The Next SARS?

There is a worldwide concern over the possibility of a Swine Flu pandemic.

Like SARS, the virus can be spread quickly via human to human contact.
In barely a month since it's 1st outbreak in Mexico, the epidemic has claimed hundreds of lives.

The virus has since spread to several other countries and could get worse.

In fact, they are just about to stop calling it Swine flu, because one won't usually catch the virus from eating pork.

I do hope we have learnt enough from SARs to be able to keep Swine Flu in check .

The fatality rate for Swine Flu is around 1-4%, rather 'low'.

I wonder why they haven't made vaccines.

    effort to create a top notch article… but what can I say…
    I procrastinate a whole lot and never seem to get anything done.

    amount of total arsenic in drinking water. Balance is the key!
    If you are not alone. Drinking non-organic coffee also
    exposes consumers to highly toxic pesticides such as aldrin,
    dieldrin, chlordane and heptachlor. The company is being
    scheduled for August 5th here in Eden Prairie.
