Swine flu death watch →[More:]
Okay, no one I know has it, but you clicked on the link, didn't you? Swine flu trivia:

. The strain of swine flu that has gotten to the U.S. is not as strong as the one in Mexico, meaning you are less likely to need hospitalization (or worse) in the U.S.

. This strain is similar to a strain that appeared in 1957 which may be the reason few older people are getting it- they still have a resistance in their immune systems.

. On my bike ride this morning, I rode by the epicenter of the outbreak in our town (an intermediate school). My riding partner informed me they actually pressure-washed the exterior brick on the building to make sure all the germies are gone.
