H1N1 Concerns

My friends with young children tell me that due to worries of H1N1 and to avoid having them infected, even if it's "just" flu, they are trying their best to keep the kids at home. This brings back awful memories of JE and SARS, doesn't it?

I guess that it is a blessing in disguise that I am forced to stay indoors because I have to care for Snoopy indoors. Otherwise, I would be out and about and that would worry me, even though so far, Ipoh is still relatively safe from H1N1 infection. Masks here have already sold out!

Although there are more than 40 people who have died from H1N1 in Malaysia already, it looks like there is no cure in sight. It is still going to be up to us to protect ourselves by avoiding crowded places and to wear a mask if are forced to be in a crowd. There is no choice.
