Scary pig influenza outbreak
28 Apr
There’s new scare in town the pig influenza which according to Webster online dictionary it is
“An acute highly contagious, respiratory disease caused primarily by a Type-A infuenza virus and characterized by depression, fever, anorexia, coughing, dyspnea, muscular weakness, prostration, and a mucous discharge from the eyes and nose. Pigs are the principal hosts of swine influenza virus, although infuenza viruses found in pigs also occur in man and birds. Source: European Union.”
It’s all over the news around the world where it is feared to kill around 150 people in Mexico. Confirmed statistics of people diagnosed carrying the feared hog influenza virus in USA there are 40 cases but no death toll yet, 6 Canada, 2 in Great Britain, 1in Spain and 2 who are undergoing test in Denmark. And they only one thing in common they had been in Mexico which is by the way had been rammed by an earthquake at least 5.5 in the Richter Scale. Not a lucky day for Mexico 
.
The health ministers in Europe are busy an visible in the news explaining about the new scare and they advised their citizens not to travel in Mexico if it is not so important. The World Health Organization (WHO) raised the pandemic alert level to 4 which means that the virus is spreading among humans. The top EU personality advised from travelling d to Mexico an to the US but President Obama calmly stated that “The outbreak i areason for concern but not yet cause for an alarm”.
I’m also concern because according to the experts this virus hits the active healthy people well I don’t know but I just hope it will be contained soon….
