Q: Is there enough?
A: Yes. The federal government has stockpiled enough of the drugs to treat 50 million people, and many states have additional stocks. As a precaution, the CDC has shipped a quarter of that supply to the states to keep on hand just in case the virus starts spreading more than it has so far. Are those States that have the vaccine treating known cases with it or no? |

A thought came to mind.
Don't eat any Asedero made in Mexico. It's a Mexican cheese that is usually made by hand. Infected people can pass it along by sneezing or other unsanitary practices. A routine sample of Asadero cheese, taken by an inspector from the Michigan Department of Agriculture’s Food and Dairy Division on February 23, 2009, was subsequently tested by the Michigan Department of Agriculture Laboratory and discovered to be contaminated with Listeria monocytogenes. The recalled Asadero and Oaxaca cheese products were distributed to retails stores and delis in 10 lb balls, 16- and 12 oz plastic packages, sold under the name "Aguas Calientes". Product was also sold in 6 lb blocks shrink-wrapped in clear plastic, under the name "El Jaliciense". Packaging may also include a label with the name "Torres Hillsdale Country Cheese LLC." |

If this is so, then the alert level surely has increased? |

Rarely, do they use a face covering and will go to work sick. |

April 27, 2009 -- Swine flu has prompted the World Health Organization to heighten its pandemic alert level from phase 3 to phase 4.
That means that the swine flu outbreak has taken a "significant step" toward becoming a pandemic, but "we're not there yet," says Keiji Fukuda, MD, assistant director-general for health,security, and environment at the World Health Organization (WHO). |

Current U.S. Count:
ATLANTA – The number of confirmed swine flu cases in the United States has jumped to 64, federal officials said Tuesday, and states reported at least four more. The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said the new count includes "a number of hospitalizations." CDC officials had previously said just one person had been hospitalized. The CDC said there were 17 new cases in New York City, four more in Texas and three additional cases in California. That brings the total numbers of cases confirmed by federal officials to 45 in New York City, 10 in California, six in Texas, two in Kansas and one in Ohio. State health officials in California have confirmed three other cases, and Indiana authorities have confirmed one. |

I heard it started when the Mexican Army released a biological agent in its fight on the drug cartels... Where did you hear that, Fanta? This is the first time that I've heard that. |
