Swine Flu - Government is Turning it into a Good Crisis

Yes it can be dangerous, and yes it is spreading. It's contagious, like other strains of the flu. But you can reduce the spread by taking standard precautions: wash your hands frequently and cover your mouth when you cough (with your elbow). It is highly contagious so if you feel ill - stay home, don't even go to the emergency room or your doctor's office without calling ahead.

Listen to the medical professionals - don't listen to the government! To them this just just another good crisis. They are using the panic caused by this illness as an opportunity to push their desire for national healthcare. President Obama has lready taken the opportunity to to blame previous administrations for lack of federal funding for scientific research potentially leading to this curent medical crisis.

So, use common sense and practice good hygiene. We'll get through this. Don't get caught up in the panic.
