Swine Flu Outbreak

Reports have spread all over the world through tabloids and television about the outbreak of Swine Flu. It is said that the virus is infecting people and is spreading from person to person. A number of suspected cases have been reported internationally.

But what is Swine Influenza?

Swine Influenza (swine flu) is a respiratory disease of pigs caused by type A influenza virus that regularly causes outbreaks of influenza in pigs. Swine influenza viruses may circulate among swine throughout the year, but most outbreaks occur during the late fall and winter months similar to outbreaks in humans. The classical swine flu virus (an influenza type A H1N1 virus) was first isolated from a pig in 1930.

The symptoms of this kind of flu includes fever, lethargy, lack of appetite and coughing. People who have swine flu also reported runny nose, sore throat, nausea, vomiting and diarrhea. Human Infection with flu viruses from pigs are most likely to occur when people are close proximity to infected pigs, such as in pig barns and livestock exhibits housing pigs at fairs. Human to human transmission of swine flu can also occur through coughing or sneezing of people infected with the said virus.

There are some drugs around that can effectively treat swine flu infection in humans. There are two main types:
  • adamantanes (amantadine and remantadine)
  • inhibitors of influenza neuraminidase (oseltamivir and zanamivir)

Give a life foundation(Philippines)



when I opened my account in Blogcatalog, I received an invitation coming from a friend, agentpx of Heavenly Yours, to blog about "Give a life foundation".When I read that this is a blogging for a cause to raise awareness and funds for worthy causes, I immediately make a post in my blog about this charity foundation:for the under-privileged sick and dying baby's and children in the Philippines whose families are less fortunate and cannot afford to send them to the best hospitals for treatment..

It cannot be denied that our country is still suffering from poverty especially that now a days, most people are affected by the global crises...the question is, how can these kids survive without the help of those philanthropists who have the heart to give and support them because their families are financially unstable the fact that the medicines are too expensive..

By the way, what is Give a Life Foundation? This is to give you a point of view about the foundation..

Give a Life children's charity, for the under-privileged sick and dying in the Philippines. Some of Manila's largest pediatric wards need your help. Your donations will provide life saving medicine and equipment for children from the poorest families in the Philippines. The Give A Life Foundation, ensures that 100% of your gifts go to help sick children in the pediatric wards of Luzon and the Philippines!
Our primary goal is to replace and upgrade the equipment used in these wards. We have also created a new cost effective and efficient systems for access to medicines, antibiotics, cancer drugs, medical supplies, disinfectants and soaps for the poorest cases.

If you have the heart to support these kids and donate,just visit their site.Click here.

I found a friend.....

If I remember it correctly,I think it was in the first week of April this year that I had found not just a good friend but a younger brother as well. During that time, I was very busy with my blog and at the same time making friends in Blogcatalog. That was the time that I am busy looking for referrals and I invited this guy to sign up in a certain social networking site and he immediately accepted my invitation and the rest was history...we became close friends though we did not meet in person..we chat and he sometimes asks for advices on something. The guy that I am referring to is Brilliam Abellar of The Pseudomonas. Now that he is taking a new step in his life which is to work abroad in order to give his family a greener pasture, I just would like to extend my warmest 'Congratulations' to you brother...Keep up the good work!

Stay in touch!
