The sky is falling the sky is falling. Run for your lives.
I was rather disgusted when I went to Japan earlier in the year for business and the Japanese government ( in typical fashion I might add) had worked up the Japanese people like hitting a bee hive repeatedly with a baseball bat about the “Swine Flu.”
Upon landing in Tokyo (the pitiful excuse for a haz mat) suited people boarded the plane and wandered around the flight deck with a heat sensing camera. In a feeble attempt to prevent the “Swine Flu” from permeating the island.
All I did was laugh about it since I thought that the Western world was a little more intelligent than this relying on the facts of the situation rather than being herded up like cattle to the slaughter by the pied piper aka the government.
But rest assured the Western hemisphere soon fell into the same state of over panic and hype all brought on by a combination of the government and the media.
People getting into physical confrontations while waiting in what looks like cheese lines from the great depression.
The governments in North America are not doing much to help the whole situation. Claiming everyone should be vaccinated and yet not having enough vaccine?
The media is more to blame due to the fact of the Swine Flu death report that is broadcast 24 hours a day.
What the media is neglecting to inform the ill informed public is that the statistics for the seasonal flu are alarmingly higher than any deaths caused by the ” Swine Flu”
So people there is a real easy solution that each and everyone of us can do to help prevent the spread of this thing.
If you are coughing or sneezing cover your mouth. This is just common manners but it appears like so many people in the world today are completely unaware of this simple rule.
Cover your mouth and don’t spread your germs. There is nothing worse then seeing people out and about coughing and sneezing blatantly into the air without any consideration for those around them.
And don’t cough or sneeze into your hand. Why? Well right after you cough or sneeze into your hand you go and touch door handles, money, etc etc which thousands of other people will come in contact with.
Which spreads the virus. So I am sure some of you out there probably don’t even know what a handkerchief is well they should come back into style asap..
You remember the pieces of cloth old men usually carry around with them to blow their noses or to sneeze into.
And there is no need to go and purchase one. Since a old bandanna does the trick just as well.
Wash your hands!! Frequently. I would personally suggest buying some hand sanitizing soap that you can carry around on your person.
And wash your hands with it several times a day.
Don’t touch your eyes or nose with your bare hands. Because bottom line folks the tips or your fingers are disgustingly dirty. You would not even want to know how dirty they are.
And finally have common courtesy for your fellow man. If you are sick, coughing and sneezing stay at home.
Don’t get on public transit infecting all of those around you then go into work and do the same.
If we all would learn some manners and wash our hands regularly and keep our fingers away from our faces H1N1 can be beat.
And for those of you that are still afraid of the H1N1 follow directions!!
If they say that such and such a group can be vaccinated on such and such a day don’t be an idiot and go there and complain when you are turned away.
So go out and enjoy life. And be considerate to your fellow man if this was done this flu would have never gone into the pandemic stage.
