Swine Flu

Heartening examples brought out by "The Hindu" prove that A(H1N1) is a self-limiting disease like any other seasonal flu. People with high immunity will contract the virus and also come out of it without even realising they had been infected. The risk is high if the patients develop secondary infections or are immuno-compromised.
The most emboldening thing is that if you contract the infection once, you will not get it again in the next 40 years. Even if there is a second infection, it will be a very mild one.
