While the world and locals are busy to whine about talibinzation of the world(or Pakistan), Swine flu is spreading all over and killing people in different part of the world and still it’s uncontrollable. The flu which spreads due to pigs(Swine) has taken many lives in past few days. WHO people feel quite helpless here and so far no good news from any part of the world to deal with this flu.
So far there is no case reported in Pakistan but according to papers Pakistan is taking precautionary measures to deal with patients coming from other part of the world. Experts checking passengers at different airports. I wonder whether Zardari will dare to visit US in coming days while we are hearing many reports about this flu from US? Just wondering!

The Influenza AH1N1 virus (previously known as Swine flu…the name has now changed) does not spread through pigs. This is actually the reason the name was changed, because it was misleading. The World Health Organization has said it is not harmful to eat pig meat (not that I am promoting that) but please educate your self and visit http://www.who.int/en/
Isnt it interesting that the largest swine producer in the US (the state of Iowa) has not one reported case of this H1N1 virus? The H1N1 virus is comprised of genes from swine, bird and human!

Adil, welcome to blog and thanks for clarification. As for US. You did not visit the map. There are flu cases in US as well.
