You should know what Swine Flu is.
Swine flu is a highly contagious acute respiratory disease normally found in pigs.(Like humans, pigs get the flu. No one would teach your “food” about how to be stronger before they become your dinner…) Four different type A swine flu strains commonly circulate among pigs. Most recent swine flu viruses have belonged to the H1N1 and H3N2 subtypes. Pigs typically get sick but usually don’t die from swine flu.
The new swine flu virus infecting humans is very unusual. It’s somehow acquired genes from swine, bird, and human flu bugs. And it’s also got genes from Eurasian swine flu viruses that aren’t supposed to be in North America.(Do you know Parasitic eve? That’s it, Mitochondria, It is thought that they were originally separate organisms, and a symbiotic relationship between them and early cellular life has evolved into their present position as cell organelles with no independent existence. Cell or virus have evolved fast than human…You are just controlled by our cells which have their own mind…It’s just SF in 2009 I think :)

Swine flu spreads through tiny particles in the air or by direct contact. According to WHO, it tends to infect large numbers of a given pig population, killing between 1 and 4 percent of those affected. Not every animal infected displays symptoms.

You should know the signs and symptoms of swine flu in people.
The symptoms of swine flu in humans are similar to the symptoms of regular flu, including fever, a cough, sore throat, body ache, headache, chills and fatigue. Some people have reported diarrhea and vomiting associated with swine flu. In the past, severe illness (pneumonia and respiratory failure) and death have been reported in swine flu patients. Like seasonal flu, swine flu may cause a worsening of underlying chronic medical conditions.

You should know  there are some medicines to treat swine flu.
Health authorities in some countries recommend the use of oseltamivir (Tamiflu) or zanamivir (Relenza) for the treatment and/or prevention of infection with these swine influenza viruses. These antiviral drugs can keep flu viruses from reproducing in one’s body and may also prevent serious flu complications.

You should know there are no precautionary measures that can be taken against swine flu.
There is no vaccine available right now to combat swine flu, but there are everyday measures that can help prevent the spread of germs causing respiratory illnesses like influenza, such as hand-washing with alchohol-based hand cleaners — especially after coughing or sneezing — and avoiding close contact with sick people.

You should know it’s safe to eat pork products.
WHO says properly handled and prepared pork products are safe to eat. The swine flu virus dies when cooked at temperatures of 160 F/70 C or higher.
