The swine flu is a respiratory disease of pigs caused by an influenza virus. Just to let you know, researchers say you can’t catch this flu by preparing or eating pork products. In terms of contagiousness, this virus of pigs works like the common flu. So yes, it’s contagious. But the thing that worries me about this and other diseases is that the swine flu is developing, even evolving, beyond researchers’ previous experiences. So what do we do next? Well, I suggest we increase our good luck and get on our good foot.
