The news say that it could be the beginning of a flu pandemic as there are cases in Mexico and two southern border states. I sure hope this is not going to be a serious threat. The news keeps warning about bird flu and keeps killing poultry stocks as it pops up now and again. The problem with this swine flu is they think it transfers from human to human and has killed people already. It also has too many cases to be confined to Mexico so they say.

We did not handle the SARS outbreak very well, I hope we learned something from that. I think I still have some of the special masks from that fiasco.
I will be watching the news, and hope this dies down soon.
