It's very happening in this one week alone either globally or locally.. The contagious H1N1 virus which we known as Influenza A-Swine Flu is getting serious now.. To be honest, formerly I wouldn't bother to spend my time in reading newspaper or even with the news, I would only flip to the entertainment part to read news about overseas actors and actress.. Since this week, almost every break in school, I'll go to the library and search for Straits Times.. It's this H1N1 virus that caught my attention and I really concern about this.... From yellow alert in Singapore, the Health Minister has raise it to orange.. And SP now is undergoing temperature screening everyday for visitors at the entrance of each gate.. For students however, we're required to wear the lanyard given and display our admin card.. What more? Each and everyone of us has to bring thermometer to school everyday, measure our own temperature and report to STRES via sms.. After the SARS case few years back, the Health Ministry here really doing his job in taking every single precautionary step in order to prevent the contagious virus from spreading here.. Temperature screening in SP only officially started on Tuesday, but to be precise it's actually Wednesday when the security guard really check our SP identity card.. After which, on Thursday they don't even bother to look at you.. hahas.. Cuz in Singapore there isn't any H1N1 virus
yet.. Since yesterday, it's reported that it will go down to yellow alert again on Monday if it's still constant.. Hopefully.. But from the news just now, Canada and Australia reported 1 death because of Swine Flu.. More people will be quarantined if it continues.. *sigh*
Alright alright, let's talk about something to be joyful then.. Mas Selamat! heard of him?? Remember one year ago there's a criminal/terrorist escaped from jail in Singapore and the government has been spending loads of money just to search him? He once plotted to hijack airplane at Changi Airport... And he's arrested now! One month ago under interrogation in Johor and guess what? He actually swam to Johor!! whoa~ What a good swimmer haha.. Even olympics champion lose to him.. lol.. Till then, beware of swine flu dear friends! Take care and drink more water..
