Over 6,000 cases now. About 10% require hospitalization..about 1% die.

It is very strange that the media has virtually stopped reporting on H1N1.

So, I keep up with statistics myself on the CDC and WHO websites.

May 14 (Bloomberg) Drugmakers may start plans to produce a vaccine for the swine flu, which health experts say causes higher rates of pneumonia and other complications than the seasonal strain.

May 14, WHO, the Geneva-based United Nations health agency, says the virus that has spread to 33 countries may touch off the first flu pandemic since 1968 and is more dangerous than the germs that cause seasonal epidemics, which kill 250,000 to 500,000 people each year. This virus is as severe as the 1957 Asian flu pandemic that caused about 2 million deaths. In Mexico 3 of 5 develop viral pneumonia and other life-threatening complications.
This is very, very unusual,

May 14th. In addition, Mexico now has almost 2500 cases and 60 deaths.

Fact is that this is NEW strain and is easily spread in the air and this is the just the start.

I pray it does not mutate into a more deadly(higher mortality rate) in the Fall.
But, it is CERTAIN it will be here in the Fall 2009 – in one form ..or another.

I use two different strategies here- either wrap a napkin around them, or hold the shaker between your ring finger and middle finger. These fingers rarely touch the food. Then wash well afterward. You can also ask for plastic silverware, most places will have it specifically for take out food. Think about it- utensils that have been in 200 or 300,000 other people’s MOUTHS or new plastic fork and spoon in a sealed wrapper? Thanks for watching.

Outstanding, outstanding, outstanding.
I am grateful for this video and it will probably change my attitude and my use of salt shakers.
