I heard on the news about this "swine flu" strain affecting Mexico and cases appearing in California and Texas --- Husky Mom, Richard, everyone who lives in Mexico and Calif.- are you okay? I'm praying you don't catch it.

Praying for peace in the Middle East, Ukraine, and around the world.

It seems to be very dangerous, as it is a combination of swine flue, avian flu and the human flu. Everyone everywhere be very careful and wash your hands a lot, especially after dealing with the public. It can be transmitted human to human, so Wash your hands, everyone!
There are cases now in New York, Ohio, and now on both coasts of Canada, and in New Zealand.

Yep - six cases in Canada so far.
But - the latest news I heard is that only the cases in Mexico involve fatalities, and they don't know why. The Canadian cases are mild, so far.

I'm Canadian......eh?
It's hit British Columbia - two cases in the Lower Mainland but they won't detail exactly where.
My brother just got back from a 6 month stay in Mexico (south of Cancun) and he's coming to visit me on Thursday. Mind you he was no where near Mexico City so I think he's safe.
Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, champagne in one hand and strawberries in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and screaming WOO HOO - What a Ride!

I try not to panic at such news but my son lives in CA and his immune system has been compromised due to that bad infection he had last year. There has been one case reported in Ohio that I know of.

Well, at least the 11 kids in the US that originally got infected didnt die.
