What I wrote is a fact? And THIS flu has taken more kids, than any other flu we have ever had in the US. Its one thing to fear that your child MAY GET SICK? Its another STORY all together to even try and THINK, they might DIE, from catching something like this h1n1 flu. I am 52 and I raised my threee kids, THEY nor I ever had to fear DEATH from ANY SCHOOL germs, or bugs,wink.. So if THATS not REAL and facts,,I can't help ya any more,wink.  It's good that you have the facts,but I dont see how any of that relates to anything I said I am assuming you were replying to me  NOPE, not to you Mirror.lol But, Seeing as we are now ,lol,,Can you give me another virus recently say with-in ten years that has left the animal kingdom and joined man's list of infectious disease? Just wondering? I mean thats like saying BEWARE your dogs heart worms can now attack your system.. Or the mange now can cause you to lose your hair? Hummmm hate to tell ya but.......... Unfortunately, humans get mange, too. A mange mite can infest a human, but the mite cannot live on them as a host, unlike the scabies mite. Mange is a parasitic skin disease caused by microscopic mites that causes you to itch constantly. Sarcoptic mange, also known as scabies, and notoedric mange are two types of mange that humans can catch. They will itch and irritate your skin for a couple of weeks, eventually, dying off. And............... It is not likely for humans to get heart worm, although they can get worms. When they get worms they can migrate to a number of places including the lungs, eye and testicles. If they do migrate to the lungs they can cause a cyst but they will not not live for long. If they migrate to the eye then they can live for quite a while. Although it is possible for them to migrate to the heart it is very unlikely and they will not survive for long periods of time. Hummmmm never doubt what can or can not be transmitted.............

Just wondering? I mean thats like saying BEWARE your dogs heart worms can now attack your system.. Or the mange now can cause you to lose your hair? Almost all human diseases originate from other animals and then adapt to human hosts, says University of Guelph agriculture professor David Waltner-Toews, author of The Chickens Fight Back: Pandemic Panics and Deadly Diseases that Jump from Animals to People. With influenza, different strains of the virus affect people, birds and pigs. Naturally, human influenza is the easiest for humans to get and to transmit to other humans. Humans can also get bird influenza and pig influenza, but it typically requires very close contact with the animals, Waltner-Toews said . Bird or avian influenza is particularly hard to get, but humans who do get it experience very severe symptoms. That is why people were worried about a deadly pandemic if avian influenza were to mutate in such a way as to become easily transmissible between humans. Swine influenza is somewhat easier to transmit to humans but its symptoms tend to be milder than bird influenza. Most flus contracted by humans are made up of predominately human influenza, but contain small pieces of avian or swine influenza. Swine flu is unusual because it is made up mostly of swine influenza but contains small amounts of avian and human influenza. The movement of a virus between species opens up more opportunities for mutations in the virus, said Dr. Ruben Donis, head of the molecular genetics branch of the influenza division at the U.S. Centers for Disease Control. The mutations would not necessarily make the virus cause more severe disease, but it cannot be ruled out, Donis said. Mutations could also perhaps make the virus stronger at beating the immune system or resistant to drugs, said Stephen Drews, a clinical microbiologist at Ontario's Public Health Laboratories http://www.cbc.ca/technology/story/2009/04/27/virus-mutate.html |

OK,,OK,,,you google well,lol,lol THIS is along the right track, but this and WE are never going to be told that we have a lab where we PLAY with viruses and make NEW ONES,wink.. Like HIV has always been here,,,,THAT kind of force feed design bothers me. Just like Mr Kennedy's death,,,some things WE will never REALLY know the TRUTH, just SOME peoples attentions to derect our thoughts,wink.. But ya done GREAT Mirror, on finding your facts,,,COOL!!! How did WE get talking about pigs tonight anyway,,,,lol,wink..I have never dated one, so we should be talking about lambs,,,I hear there really great in the sack,,,,,,lol,lol Almost all human diseases originate from other animals and then adapt to human hosts, says University of Guelph agriculture professor David Waltner-Toews, author of The Chickens Fight Back: Pandemic Panics and Deadly Diseases that Jump from Animals to People.
