Yes, I was just looking at that on our news!

81 deaths so far in Mexico I believe they said.

Confirmed cases now in Texas, CA, Kansas and a suspected outbreak of 8 or more cases at a private school in NY.

The virus has a mix of Swine, Human and Avian genetic markers. Over a thousand confirmed infections in Mexico. Immunity is not believed to be improved by this years flu vaccine and the virus has shown some resistance to at least 2 anti-virals.

Something to watch, that's all I'm saying.

It's major news in the UK.

The experts here are worried about the rate it is spreading.

swine-flu?

Haven't had time to read the article, sorry.
Is it contagious, or only sexually transmitted from pig to human?

I don't think that is going to work either. They were talking to a women on the news in Ontario, that was on a trip to Mexico with her husband, and she has the symptoms.

Well they should be. Complexion of the board changes when the big guy becomes pi$$ed off (anthropopathism, language of accomodation, etc).
