Swine Flu Alert

Just a few minutes ago, I read a news report and I found out that this Swine Flu may be familiar to the 1918 Spanish flu pandemic. This Spanish flu started as a very mild virus and after a while, the virus just vanished but later in the year it came back and it was more virulent when it first came. This time's Swine Flu may be the same as what happened in the 1910s. In 1918, when the virus came back, it had killed up to 50 million people world wide. Although the Swine Flu appears to be milder than what the Spanish Flu started to be but there is still a risk that this Swine Flu virus may be the same type of virus as the Spanish Flu virus so we must be at the lookout.

Good luck to all >.<
