Question about Hong Kong

I think we do not fear the flu, as long as we know the way how to protect us from it.

The symptoms of swine flu include fever, cough, sore throat, myalgia, headache, chills, fatigue and even diarrhea, vomiting. All these can cause fatal outcomes like pneumonia and respiratory failure.

Correct. It is reported that there are three ways of infection. So we should pay attention to the following three occassions.
a. avoid having a close touch with pig or pig flesh which carries the swine flu virus;
b. keep away from those who are sneezing. The exact distance should be 1.8 meters away.
c. the swine flu virus can survive 2 hours outside human's body. so we should wash our hands frequently in case we have touched sth carries the virus.

Horrible, no wonder the WHO warned that the swine flu would probably break out around the world.
There is now an assured H1N1 case in mainland China. The latest news says the man and his relatives has been separated in Sichuan Province.
