My Turn

yesterday was such a shock to everyone that more than half of 5M1 students get fever
until teacher need to bring them down by herself
tat's not at all yet
many people still coughing inside the class and 3 more sicker not yet go home~
it was such an empty class yesterday
every teacher came in also ask what happen to our class
and they seemed like so afraid to get the same disease
as H1N1 is coming closer and closer to us
people said at sg ara..some said at air itam,where i lived.
haha
anyway

there's no fear at first
i was still joking around that all those sickers are bookworms
while troublemakers like us are healthy than them

but when it came to an end for the school lessons
i started to feel the ichyness in my throat
and soon
i coughed too
holly~
that's my turn now..

virus like this attacking me?



the colour is disgusting right?
except for this one
yucks~
it still looks ugly instead.



now,
i am suffering sore throat and fever and a little of flu~
will i be the one of them?
what if i am?
but HAHA
i still can blogging here means what?
anyway i have searched some of the swine flu's information
and i get to know that
i have 4 of the symtoms over 6.



SWINE FLU SYMPTOMS
1. High temperature, tiredness and lowered immunity
2. Headache, runny nose and sneezing
3. Sore throat
4. Shortness of breath
5. Loss of appetite, vomiting and diarrhoea
6. Aching muscles, limb and joint pain



and there..how it is spreaded in a fast speed


Flu viruses mutate over time causing small changes to proteins on their surface called antigens. If the immune system has met a particular strain of the virus before, it is likely to have some immunity; but if the antigens are new to the immune system, it will be weakened.

The influenza A virus can mutate in two different ways; antigenic drift, in which existing antigens are subtly altered, and antigenic shift, in which two or more strains combine. Antigenic drift causes slight flu mutations year on year, from which humans have partial, but not complete, immunity. By contrast, the new strain of H1N1 appears to have originated via antigenic shift in Mexican pigs

The name "swine flu" is a slight misnomer as it is believed pigs acted as a mixing pot for several flu strains, containing genetic material from pigs, birds and humans. Most humans have never been exposed to some of the antigens involved in the new strain of flu, giving it the potential to cause a pandemic.

The new virus has made the jump from pigs to humans and has demonstrated it can also pass from human to human. This is why it is demanding so much attention from health authorities. The virus passes from human to human like other types of flu, either through coughing, sneezing, or by touching infected surfaces, although little is known about how the virus acts on humans.

SO..STAY PRECAUTION WITH IT !
