If you watch the news, you may become overwhelmed by the reports about the Swine, Mexico, or H1N1 flu virus reports. If you follow the stories, you will find that much of the “pandemic” talk is being sensationalized. In fact, now many of the reports of cases of flu reported in the news are now being retracted as “not the flu.” Take normal precautions to protect yourself, but the most important precaution is not watching too much television! Get good rest, wash your hands frequently and be alert to your surroundings.
