i think there is a bit too much panic with the whole swine flu thing.
we recently went to the uk and came back with flu like symptoms, after a few days we were ok.
just a normal flu.
we came back from a holiday in turkey a few years ago,when they had the avian flu, hubby who was ill had loads of tests but didn't have it.
just shows they can panic you into believing.

It's Summer. This Winter will reveal the scale of the problem.

On my last visit over home I sneezed on the plane. I still don't think that the man in the next seat was convinced I was just suffering from 'allergies' and not 'swine fever'!
