Swine Flu Gets Closer!


Swine Flu makes an appearance close to home! my kids have been given a letter by their school today informing us that a case of swine flu has been found at school.
The letter did not give much information but few schools in the area have had similar cases and were closed to pupils, I have been trying to phone the school but they are not answering the phone, when kids were being picked up by their mum, she managed to talk to one of the school governors who said that there are no plans so far to close the school and that they will wait to see if there are more cases.
Today is Friday and I suspect that they will wait until Monday to take a decision on what to do, swine flu cases in the UK have mostly been mild with no serious illness so far, so inshaAllah khair and hope there will be no need for medications for all affected.

I hope by now that everyone in your family is well ... OR never got sick to begin with!

The Swine Flu is everywhere in Egypt and since we are just next door to them , am sure it is here too . People everywhere sniffling and sneezing .

Am more concerned with the out break of the Plague in Eastern Libya than Swine Flu though to tell you the truth . The news went out and since then , nothing else on what has happened with it, whether or not it is spreading .

TRIPOLI, Libya (AP) - Libya has reported its first swine flu case _ a Thai worker detected with the illness upon his return from his homeland.
Health Minister Mohammed al-Hejazi said Sunday the man was hospitalized for treatment, and now is recovering.
Al-Hejazi said the man had been on vacation Thailand and had transited through Dubai.
