H1N1 scare and strategic mistakes by Government
In recent times, you might have encountered people wearing weird masks, boards with messages from government on swine flue and group of people debating and giving advises on swine flu. If you happen to open TV and come across some news channel, they all are full of reports on new swine flu cases and at times, a doctor sitting and discussing prevention, causes and symptoms of swine flu. One of the news channel has also started a count of swine flu cases and death toll. Swine flu, now technically termed as H1N1, is strain of influenza virus and is a transmittable disease. H1N1 cases were first reported in Mexico . True! It is a transmittable disease with no antibiotic developed till now, likely to make by the end of this year, Tamiflu is only one antiviral drug and can make the illness milder but still a lot of hype has been made of it. People are so scared that schools have been closed in some parts of country. It is not such a dangerous virus.
