H1N1 or best known to us as "Swine Flu", is a respiratory disease that is typically found in pigs but occasionally can spread to humans. Swine flu was first found in San Antonio, Texas and Southern California but the cause of the spread is still unknown. Flu is usually spread through airborne spit that leaves our mouths.
Swine flu is now ranked 5 to 6 on the rank of how many people have it. This doesn't necessarily mean that more people are dieing from it but that it is spreading more in certain regions.
A way to prevent from getting Swine Flu is to WASH YOUR HANDS, DISINFECT SURFACES, AND AVOID CLOSE CONTACT WITH PEOPLE WHO ARE SICK!!
Good luck on not becoming a lil' piggy!!
