[SWINE] - Do you bother??

A sorry but common sight everywhere...

Isn't it sad that whilst the world is still bracing the on-going financial meltdown that out of sudden another crisis had caught everybody flat-footed??

The Swine Flu is now the talk on everybody's lips ever since it crippled the whole Mexico and spread to the neighbouring United States, Canada etc.

So what on earth had actually happened?

This flu, commonly found in pigs, had already caused considerable damage to a lot of industries, directly or indirectly.

Even though, at this stage nothing had medically proved that consuming pork products will cause one to contract to this disease, some can't help but feel wary of it (not me at this stage till it is confirmed.)

One of my favourite dishes - "Kway Chap" - comprised of mixtures of pig's organs and other ingredients.

So the only things we can do is to follow whatever guidelines given by the local health authority and see a doctor if one is feeling unwell.

However, if the general public don't do their part and simply maintain that kind of "don't-give-a-damn" attitude, so what's the point?
