Swine Flu By: Michael and T.J

What is swine flu? Where was the first case of swine flu? How serious is swine flu? How does it spread so quickly? Did the swine flu really come from a pig? Are all farmers in danger?

Swine flu facts Swine flu usually infects pigs and hogs so farmers are in danger of catching swine flu from being near pigs and hogs. Swine flu didn’t just start; it has been around since the beginning of the 20 th century. Rarely this has spread from human to human. Swine flu symptoms are similar to those for H1N1 or the common flu. These symptoms are due to the likeliness of getting H1N1. Swine flu spreads just as quickly as the regular flu. Swine flu did come from a pig or hog. Swine flu is caused by those strains of influenza. One thing to protect yourself from getting this is the simple things like covering your mouth when you cough and washing your hands. If you don’t you might die, there have been 8 deaths.
