I've been worrying about this since yesterday because I've been down with flu. I'm just crossing my fingers, hoping it's just the ordinary kind.

This is what my Job Says:
Quote

With employees' health the company's top priority, JPMorgan Chase is taking common-sense precautions in response to the swine flu situation. To protect employees, the bank has:
Increased cleaning services at all its Mexico locations.
Made face masks and alcohol-based hand cleaners available at all Mexico locations.
Limited travel to Mexico to only essential business travel.
Reviewed steps that could be taken, if necessary, in the U.S. or other locations.
Yesterday, with 20 cases of swine flu confirmed in the U.S., health officials declared a public health emergency. Investigators said they expected more cases of the flu in the U.S., but noted that to date, virtually all had been mild.

An emergency declaration is "standard operating procedure" so the government can release funds and take other measures, explained U.S. Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano, who added that she would rather call it a "declaration of emergency preparedness."

If you work in Mexico and have specific questions or concerns, contact your Human Resources representative. In other locations, call the JPMorgan Chase command center:

Naija people again. This is not time for everybody to repent. Everytime is time for people to repent and just because there's a pandemic doesnt mean the world will end. The spanish flu of 1918-1919 killed 50million people around the world and yet the world did not end. Please, look for a better reason for people to repent than claiming the world would end.

Its not extremely deadly but it mostly depends on which strain a person has. Undecided Undecided Undecided

The one going around in Southern California and Mexico is a mix btw avian flu
and swine flu.

Also,if your immune system is not very healthy and if you have other respiratory
diseases,the rate of fatality goes up.

The strain that is going around is especially dangerous because a person does not
need to be in contact with swine to get it;its being passed frm one person to
another person.

Breaking news: Earthquake (6.0 on the richter scale) in Mexico City, already the most plagued area of concern.

If this isn't the apocalypse, then I don't know what is.

I went to the grocery shop today and did some serious shopping. I have two children I cannot take any chances. Even if we have to lock ourselves in doors for 3 months, we have enough food and first aid to wait it out. There is one reported case in my state right now so I am just being cautious. For those mother's that go grocery shopping with your kids please wipe the cart handle before you put your babies in it.

This Swine Flu is SERIOUS!!, Last thursday only three people had it here in the US, today 145 people have it and now an elementary school in a nearby city where i live just confirmed three children have it.
I pray they can stop it from reaching a worldwide pandemic on time
