Swine flu's hitting the schools...

[Spooky]

A few colleges and universities here have temporarily halted classes due to an outbreak in A H1N1 (swine flu's official name) flu cases. Nothing really serious so far as those infected eventually got well, but it's very contagious.

You know what sucks? I just saw on the news today that there is now a confirmed A H1N1 case in my city. Looks like it has already spread... >_<

That's bad. Be sure to look up tips on avoiding swine flu!

Has anyone come up with a vaccine yet? I think I read on CNN a while back that someone was developing one, but I haven't heard a thing about it since. You'd think that there would be more people trying to find a cure for it since WHO declared it a pandemic. >_>

Honestly, I am not prepared for it. I'm mostly at home and I rarely go out, but I think I'm gonna come up with a vaccine for prevention. I'd rather be healthy than get sick with swine flu.

About the vaccine, there is a company in Switzerland that has a one that is being tested. Due to the demand for it, it has skipped several steps in testing and moved directly to humans.

The swine flu has hit my city as well and I hope it won't spread too fast. Also, the normal flu spreads faster than the swine flu so why aren't we doing anything about that?
