Swine Flu Myths
Yer’re all gonna die !
Hehehe!! thought the picture was funny.. i hope it made you laugh too.. hahahha!!
Anyhow.. to continue on the facts and truth about the Swine Flu. Some ppl said they will never get swine flu because they put on the mask. How true is it..??
The blue surgical masks you’ve seen being passed out to any pedestrians are better than nothing but probably only marginally useful, said Andrew Pekosz, associate professor of microbiology and immunology at the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health in Baltimore, Maryland.
While such masks block the relatively large, virus-carrying droplets sneezed out by infected people, the viruses themselves are much smaller and could easily pass through. Specialtymasks, designated N-95 or N-99, are better filters but still not perfect.
Some ppl say not to eat pig or touch the pig.. because by doing so – you can get infected…?? *roll eyes(
This is untrue. The virus itself mutated so that it transmits from human to human. This is the reason the World Health Organization and the Disease Control Center began watching how the virus transmitted.
