Swine Flu Update Hawaii

I have been following the swine flu across the news here in Hawaii and World Wide. I will summarize for you what I have found. The following will provide more information than you need. In case you do not want to visit the CDC site yourself I will summarize what I found as of today’s date MAY 3 2009.

Hawaii still has not reported a case of swine flu.
Mexico has reported 397 confirmed human cases of infection, including 16 deaths. The higher number of cases from Mexico in the past 48 hours reflects ongoing testing of previously collected specimens. The United States Government has reported 160 laboratory confirmed human cases, including one death.The following countries have reported laboratory confirmed cases with no deaths – Austria (1), Canada (51), China, Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (1), Costa Rica (1), Denmark (1), France (2), Germany (6), Israel (3), Netherlands (1), New Zealand (4), Republic of Korea (1), Spain (13), Switzerland (1) and the United Kingdom (15).

Washing Hands and Wearing Surgical Respirator Type Mask , avoiding crowds in an area with Swine Flu appear to be good protective measures.
