With the recent on-set of Pig Flu the Board of Education was kind enough to send an email out with some answers to the commonly asked questions about this confusingly named virus. Most kids are under the impression that they can no longer eat HAM-burgers, not realizing that the tasty treat actually comes from a cow. (In case you were wondering, yes, they do think that hot dogs are completely safe to eat during the Swine Flu Scare) However, given that these students are mislead and Swine Flu cannot be contracted through eating pork products we needed to get the word out there for them.
Let me summarize, in the event of a national health emergency the precautions that should be taken are the following:
Wash your hands
Stay away from sick people
Oh...so basically I can avoid getting this potentially deadly virus, which has caused two NYC schools to shut down already, and has caused Pres Obama to declare a national health emergency, by....washing my hands. Oh, and of course, staying away from sick people.
Basically, I must treat Swine Flu like a subway ride. And although people preaching that the world is coming to an end most likely will not give me Swine Flu, I think I will stay away from them on the subway as well.
