Swine Flu

A new deadly flu claimed more victims and spread further afield yesterday, prompting the World Health Organisation (WHO) to consider raising its pandemic alert level and governments worldwide to issue a flurry of travel warnings.

Now the hottest topic in the news is not the slump of DJ index but SWINE Flu. It probably started in Mexico, spread to USA, Canada etc and the whole world is now on alert.

The hospitals in Singapore are taking no chance to prevent an occurrence of SARS again.

Just when I am planning a vacation to Hong Kong, this shocking news arrived. Now I do not know if I should continue with my holiday or simply stay at home in June.

Are we getting something similar to SARS or Avian Flu as before?
