This is really scary, a new flu called Swine flu. It infected pigs and has now mutated to infect people.

Fatal new flu strain threatens Mexico, U.S.

MEXICO CITY (Reuters) – Mexican and U.S. health officials searched on Saturday for signs an outbreak of a new flu strain is spreading further, after it killed up to 68 people in Mexico and infected eight in the United States.

As Mexico shut schools and museums and axed public events, global health officials stopped short of declaring a pandemic.

But they warned more cases could come to light, making up a major outbreak, as the flu spreads between people and infected some individuals who had no contact with one another.

As of yet the US hasn’t closed the border with Mexico. This is insane if there is a possible epidemic breaking out you need to close the border. Also in the areas where people got infected here in the US, needs to be sealed off. This must be contained or a mass vaccination program implemented.
