Swine Flu Advisory from CDC

[ThreeofUs]

Given that the US has just declared a public health emergency over swine flu, I thought I'd post the CDC page so people can get more information - including what to look for in folks who might have this flu.

Thank you for the info. I heard something about this the other day.

I just skimmed the links you provided. The swine flu doesn't sound any scarier than the regular flu which goes around this time of year. Did I miss something? We really don't need to take any precautions other than frequent handwashing, right?
