most recently an out break of a flu strain named the swine flu , found first in pigs, was descovered in mexico city. The viris is muc like the regular flu in symtoms but when it comes to exposure time its two days after being exposed you show symtoms the next 11 days you are contages one of the longest catch times ever. over 200 people in mexico have died from this virise but there is surely hundreds more infected in mexico. The Us has only one comfermed death and it was that of an infant, but that does not mean adults can't catch it everyone can catch it and if your unhealthy your chances are higher if your sick and amune system is down your really sesptilble masks won't protect you but if you have it it can help protect others by wearing a mask. This outbreak was labeled a code 5 but more recently it has leaked that it might be a code 6 wich has never happened. More people died in the last outbreak of influenza (flu) than people who fought in WWII!!! Schools in texas have been closed and thousands of kids are at home. The problem is if the parence stay home they might louse there jobs if they send their kids to daycare isn't that the same as school if parence louse their jobs they will be another unimployed statistic. President Oboma hasn't explain what will happen if the outbreak turns into fullblown epidemic if in the next few weeks an epidemic isn't called we will be ok but if ones called in the next few days we may be looking at a disaster. We can only pray and put our faith in god to stop this viris from infecting even more people or that a cure is found.
