caz963Swine flu has reached my neck of the woods.
We're at stage 5 (of 6) on the WHO's pandemic scale, but so far, cases are relatively few and are mild - the guy mentioned in that article is at home. I also have to say that I think the media is - for once - actively helping the situation by not spreading doom, gloom and panic.
In our favour right now is the fact that we're moving out of our main flu season, although some are saying that that's a false optimism, because all it means is that we'll be hit by it later in the year.
Note to self - get a flu jab this year!
