Swine Flu

Okay...for those that may not know there’s a big scare over “swine flu” right now.  California Governor has issued a “State of Emergency” announcement for the state and other states have been effected as well, though the most sever cases have been in Mexico.  Schools are closing down, people are panicking and getting tested for every little sneeze (it /is/ spring people, you /could/ just have allergies), clinics are running out of supplies /to/ test.....etc, etc, etc.   

Swine flu is an animal flu...basically meaning, usually only animals get it, specifically pigs.  And it’s transferred from live pigs (so eating pork, unless you’re allergic to it, isn’t gonna hurt you).  No one’s sure yet how people first got it, or why or how it’s spreading from human to human. 

With that said....when I saw this I just had to laugh....and cringe. >,o   Eeew.....^,^;;;
