This is just to give you more information on the recent
global threat of swine influenza pandemic.
In response to cases of human illnesses caused by swine influenza
and reports of human-to-human infection on Mexico,
the World Health Organization (WHO) is coordinating the global
response to human cases of swine influenza A (H1N1)
and monitoring the corresponding threat of an influenza pandemic.
WHO has published a factsheet which looks
at the following frequently asked questions:
• What is swine influenza?
• What are the implications for human health?
• Where have human cases occurred?
• How do people become infected?
• Is it safe to eat pork meet and products?
• What about the pandemic risk?
• Is there a human vaccine to protect swine influenza?
• What drugs are available for treatment?
Our Department of Health (DoH) is already taking surveillance
and preventive measures to address this issue. In fact,
DoH already ordered a ban on pork imports from the United States and Mexico as a precaution.
Although there is still no case of swine flu in the Philippines,
DoH provided some tips to avoid the spread of the virus:
- Avoid "beso-beso" or social kissing;
- swine flu is transmitted through droplet infection and physical contact;
- refrain from shaking hands, bussing cheeks, and hugging;
- cover your mouth and noses when sneezing;
- wash your hands after shaking hands with other people.
DoH advised the public that it is safe to eat pork meat and products.
You don't get swine flu from eating pork.
According to DoH swine flu symptoms are: common flu,
include fever, sore throat, sore muscles and diarrhea.

whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa.
i underestimated influenzaH1N1
i thought di nya tayo kayang pasukin. yung sars nga diba di naman ata tayo na invade. but then influenza blah blah proved me wrong. halaaa.
may lalabas pa raw na mas malakas na version nito according to the news...
we have to take responsibility
ingat ingat ....
:o
Tingin niyo gawa kaya to ng mga bioterrorist???Gaya ng antharx???
malaki ang possibilities na pwede manmade ang ganitong virus or
tlgang they invented about this...
kasi isa ito sa mga human threat na maituturing
pwede siyang gamiting mass destruction ng mga terrorist
pero sa ngayon base on facts
they found it sa isang remote area sa mexico
at buti na lng maaga tayong naging aware dito
para makaiwas...

Wehhh talaga???nakapasok na ba talaga????baka naman under observation pa yun....
we already have 2 confirmed victims of AH1N1.
good thing they are already recovering well. they just need to trace who were with the victims to further quarantine them..
meron akong officemate, buong pamilya nila nagpa-vaccine noong Sabado against flu.
dapat talaga nagpapa flu vaccine ka annually. it helps a lot. though, ewan ko lang kung kaya niya labanan ang ah1n1
Kaya nga eh...nagpaflu vaccine kami last week...ewan ko lang kung immuned na kami sa h1n1...
hindi pa ata kasi hindi pa nagagawa yung vaccine to prevent that particular strain.
MAY STUDENT SA LA SALLE MAY H1N1 na daw ...GRABE...
pati la salle pinasok na grabe...
baka wala ng mag enroll sa La salle...
High Class na school may H1N1 ...grabe na to...
:o :-[
wala naman pinipili dapuan ang H1N1.
mayaman or mahirap
high class or low class
pwede dapuan ng virus na to.
how stupid. dapat csb din suspended ang classes!
hello like, isang tawid lang csb na. and baka may benildeans na kasama sa dorm yung exchange student na yun. kainis! kailangan magkaron muna ng first case bago mag suspend. tsk tsk
AH1N1MO! LOL
Hehe...ginawang live bait yung mga csb students...
Gelo magprisinta ka na...magpahawa ka ng h1n1 hehehe... ;)

To some it up, yung namamatay talaga eh yung meron ng present illness o yung mahina talaga ang system... kaya kung kayo medyo may sakit na... magkulong muna kayo sa bahay. Though, nakakatakot pa rin di ba... pero go to the mall, ang dami pa ding tao....
sawa na ako sa mga health update na ito.
parang chambahan na lang eh. and most especially victims naman yung galing talaga sa ibang bansa...
actually tinatamad na ko dito sa bahay. sana may pasok nalang ulit. mukhang mas magkakasakit pa ko dito sa bahay. hahahaha. wala tuloy kaming term break :'(

Yeah yung flu vaccine daw....it gives 80% of protection dun sa h1n1...
medyo iba kasi yun swine flu kesa yung regular flu...
pero 80% is big enough to proctect you....20% na lang yung probability na magkaroon ka..
eh pano kung yung 20% ...yun pala ang papatay sayo hehe...mas makamandag yung probability hehe
Kapag naman tinamaan ka ng h1n1 di ka namn kaagad namamatay...
Saka mababa yun mortality rate nun...may tamiflu naman..
Vitamins lang katapat nun eh and proper hygiene
hindi ako natatakot sa swine flu! >:(
LOL dengue mas nakakatakot :o
400+ na according to the news...ang mga cases nito sa Pilipinas
over rated na ito.
ako nagka flu na rin. gumaling na rin. ;D
May namatay na raw dito sa pinas dahil dyan....
Nabasa ko sa front page ng yahoo phil.
delikado na yan hehe ....
nagwowork daw sa congreso yung isang kaso na namatay sa swine flu....
pero dahil daw yun sa stroke ..ewan ko lang ...
kasi nakitaan daw ng sintomas eh
Were so blessed di pa nagkakaroon ng ganyan sa school namin...
Malalapit pa naman sa ami yung mga school na may H1N1 cases na....
buti pa sa mga public schools..karamihan puro private scho0ls..
kung sino pa un malinis sa katawan sila pa un dinadapuan ng virus..
are you implying madumi yung mga tiga-public schools? mamaya may gumera from *****...
well kasi most of them came from a vacation in another country. doon nila malamang nasagap ang flu virus.
ahaha.. wla naman ako ibig sabihin dun..
napansin ko lang na karamihan mga studs from private schools ang nadadapuan.. and as you said galing kasi sa ibang country.. mayayaman.. hehe..
sa mga public scho0ls kasi i think di sila ganun nagpapaapekto sa h1n1..
.. hehe.. gulo ko..hehe antok lang..
pang mayaman at pagn private schools daw yung FLU hehe ...
yung mga nasa public kasi matagal na silang immune sa VIRUS hehe ;D
hehe.. un ata un naisip ko e..
Mutualism lang yan....pag naexposed ka sa virus nang matagal...your immuned... ;D
dapat hindi na tau matakot sa A(H1N1) na yan...
Sabi nga sa skul nmn:
"Be flu-less not clue-less!"
hugas lng ng alcohol ang katapat nyan...
lotion na lang wag alcohol hehe ...
