What is the symtem of swine flu?

Answer 1

Swine Flu is a new outbreak of flu that started in pigs, then mutated and jumped over to humans. It is just like a normal flu, but some people are dying from it. In my opinion, it's not that bad. It has only killed people from Mexico and some third-world countries. Honestly, the only reason people are making a big deal is because it's new. I know the bird flu scared lots of people too, and that's a big part of this whole fuss.

Answer 2

To the best of my knowledge Swine flu is a mutation of horse and swine flu and a mutation of a strand of human flu.

The only way to catch swine flu is to be so close to an infected person that when they cough or sneeze the germs [ like a normal flu ] will infect you.

Currently people who are becoming infected are catching it from visiting Mexico and Japan (slim possibility).

Flu shots cannot prevent this flu and currently only one medication tabiflu (?) and this does not cure it. Vaccines are in the process of being made in the event of a endemic.

You cannot catch it from eating pork.

You can die from swine flu but the 500 deaths reported in Mexico were 80% false and now they are saying these numbers are not true.

The first case in Australia has been identified.

This is simple and basic knowledge i have from watching the news

Answer 3

The virus that causes swine flu (H1N1/09) started in pigs and then mutated so that it was able to be passed from the pigs to humans and now it passes from human to human. Pigs are also known as swine. The name "Swine Flu" caught on from that. See the related questions below for more information about what it stands for.
