The Swine Flu!!

Did you guys hear about the swine flu? Well if u didnt the swine flu is a dieseasse that is going on right now in the world. Swine influenza or swine flu is a type of flu that normally only affects pigs. That pigs can get the flu shouldn't be too surprising to people, as there have been many complaints in recent years about the bird flu (Avian Influenza), another type of flu virus that affects birds. Although both types of flu have long caused outbreaks in animals, the main problem occurs when these flu viruses infect humans. This was highlighted by a swine flu outbreak in Fort Dix, New Jersey in 1976, in which at least four soldiers got sick and one died, and the more devastating bird flu outbreaks that have killed hundreds of people worldwide.
