Swine Flu
Sylvain D:
Well, does anyone over here has any "confirmation" about swine flu in China?
My ex just called me, as her boss has her wife who is chinese, and her chinese family (in China) said that people who were going there will have one incubation's week....
:s
Well, if that's the case ,knowing that I'l go there for one week, I wouldn't be blocked because of that, and not see Ting :(

Sylvain , One of our travel company managers just went to Shanghi for a conference and because someone on the plane tested positive for the swine flu they put everyone into 7 day Q'tine , so she was not happy Jan but you should be okay , all fingers are crossed for you .
Sylvain D:
Thanks for the return, Robert :)
Well, if I see someone who got swine fu, I throw him though the plane, I don't want to be in quarantine once there ^^

I just talked to Angel this AM. She says 60 new cases in Beijing since last Friday. None new in her hospital though.

I flew into Hong Kong in May. Three days later while listening to the news, I heard that a woman had swine flu on the same plane I was on. She was about 20 rows behind me. The form you fill out upon arrival (I filed 3 different times the same form on my way from HK to Shenzhen) asks for the phone number and address you will stay at. I never did get contacted. The one place my wife works at had her boss not giving her any work for one whole month because he was worried that I might have brought swine flu with me.
My body tempreature was only checked once and that was when I filed the last time the form. By this time I had been in country for almost 2 hours co-mingling with the residents. The reports I read say that the flu is passed by body contact and not by air. All the health checking people had masks on but no gloves. They hand me a pen and paper to write with and then take it back from me. All I am thinking is that if this flu becomes very deadly.... we are in serious trouble.
