Movie Premiere Cancelled, Swine Flu Scare


The Swine Flu has had almost 90 cases recorded in hospitals throughout the nation within the last few weeks, with the most in New Mexico.  Other states with reported cases include New York, California, Texas, Ohio, and Kansas.  The Swine Flu is a type of influenza that is embodied in pigs.  Humans that work closely with pigs are most likely infected with the disease, especially in intenese exposures.  This is indeed contagious, can be passed through humans, and is definitely a type of influenza.

Earlier today in New Mexico, a festival premiere of X-Men Origins: Wolverine was cancelled due to the rapidly spreading infection.  The government didn't want Hugh Jackman and crew to feel unsafe or even be a statistic to the epidemic.  

Symptoms of Swine Flu include human flu, including fever, cough, sore throat, body aches, headache, chills and fatigue. A few patients have reported that they also suffered from diarrhea and vomiting.

The Center of Disease Control has shipped out over 12 million vaccinations throughout the nation to prevent the population from dying of the disease, if infected.

PLEASE BE CAREFUL OUT THERE!
