It better not spread to me.
(It's spread to several people who live in my county, so I'm a little worried.)

WASH YOUR HANDS!
That's what you should do!!
We aren't going to call it the "swine flu" anymore.
I hope I don't get it.
Those poor Mexicans.

Only 12 mexicans died from this flu. Media hype had it up to 100. What percentage of people actually died of this compared to any other disease. All hype to scare he masses into doing things to make others some money.

i actually have a really big problem with calling it SWINE FLU. It's discriminatory against pigs. Please call it H1N1 Influenza A. Thank you very much. I think it's being blown seriously out of proportion, just like the bird flu. Couple years ago, we were all supposed to die from Avian flu, and we're fine. people need to learn to chill out.

It's not actually from pigs. It's just another virus. Trust me it's not directly from pigs. I've heard the news say this. And only one person in the U.S. has died from it. More people are dying down there in Mexico though.
