swine flu - alertz!

what is swine flu?
The swine influenza A (H1N1) virus that has infected humans in the U.S.
and Mexico is a novel influenza A virus that has not previously been
identified in North America. This virus is resistant to the antiviral
medications anamtadine
(Symmetrel) andrimantadine
(Flumadine), but is sensitive to oseltamivir
(Tamiflu) and zamanivr (Relenza). Investigations of these cases suggest that on-going human-to-human swine influenza A (H1N1) virus is occurring.

tips to prevent swine flu

he CDC recommends routine precautions to prevent the spread of infectious diseases like Spine Flu. These include
* Washing hands routinely with soap and warm water,
* Covering your nose and mouth when you cough or sneeze and
* Avoiding close contact with sick people
Wearing a N99 mask, such as the Wein ViraMask may be helpful. N99 masks provide 100 x more protection than a N95 mask. If you are planning on traveling by air, having one available would be a good idea.
If you contract the swine flu, there are 2 flu medications which can
be helpful. The CDC recommends the use of oseltamivir or zanamivir for
the treatment and/or prevention of infection with swine influenza viruses. These medications can also be used for the usual avian influenza. Remember- most with flu symptoms simply have a viral infection and NOT the Swine Flu.


also one more thing plzz avoid going to crowded places, avoid eating out side and if you have symptoms like this plzz immediately go to a swine flu blood test. this flu is recently in india and many young one have died a 4r old a 14 yr old and also 13 yr old. plz avoiding schools will bot work as studies r important too. and too much panicking will bring more panics
1st of all the gov r more concentrating on urbanized people that the poor ppl. as you know they have more threat than us , try to help them by providing facilities, and information rightly
as a citizen its out responsibility, instead shutting down school they should do something about the local trains and the local facilities!
i wanted to spread this, especially to indians
