Influenza porcina

Lots of questions on the swine flu. Travel is restricted. Not a good thing for the economy. Maybe 40 cases in Oaxaca. City out of face masks. Schools closed until May 6. One serious case in Juchitan. I have read that there were 150 deaths, but don't know the locations yet. More later.

La grippa is always bad in southern Mexico, due to the poverty and poor nutrition, but the clinicas in each village are impressive. I thought the health care system, in general, was better there then here in the US.

Of course, the media treats it like Brittany Spears, fanning the flames, speculating that we are all going to die and doing what they do so well... pontificating and laying blame. Morans! Do you jobs.

(Uh.. Chris... maybe you should stop reading all those newspapers and watching TeeVee... just a thought.)

  1. Hey, I am checking this blog using the phone and this appears to be kind of odd. Thought you'd wish to know. This is a great write-up nevertheless, did not mess that up.
