Swin Flu - Part 1

Swine Flu is spreading across the globe and many people are afraid of this deadly disease due to its widespread message through the news and television coverage. Most of us are unclear as to what Swine Flu is? Well, Swine Flu or Influenza A (H1N1), is simply a flu virus with no cure. Basically, this virus stems from a combination of other flu viruses that originate from animals such as pigs, and even birds and human being. Because they are also present in human being, they can easily be transferred from one person to another. The Swine Flu virus spreads similarly to the way other viruses spread, via air. Therefore, when a person sneezes or coughs or even speaks, this virus can transfer from one being to another. As a result, we are seeing people wear masks across northern and southern America and all over the world.
