The Swine flu is a deadly flu that will take up to ten weeks to find a vaccine for. It is found mainly in pigs but you can't catch the swine flue by eating or being near pigs. It has killed many people in Mexico, some in New York, and are killing people all over the United States. This is the deadly facts of the swine flu. I think that this article is very interesting, and it proves some things that people have been fearing from the swine flu. For example, people have been scared that if they eat pigs or go near pigs they'll catch swine flu. But this article proves that this isn't true. I felt that this article is reassuring and very interesting.

I think that the media is making too big of a deal about swine flu. They estimate that they will have a cure in about 8 weeks. Swine flu, or H1N1, has less deaths by FAR than the influenza virus.

I believe that this article is making the swine flu look like the deadliest disease alive, where as it is really just another flu that has attacked people with weak immune systems. I had the swine flu and I got better within a week. I know dozens of other healthy people who got the swine flu and had it for three days.
