a little reminder..

The flu has spread to Kuantan. So here is some reminder to all friends and family.

a good investment now is Hand Sanitizer that u can get from drug store. It is bloody cheap. About RM 3 per small bottle that u can carry around in ur handbag and pocket. You can also carry around the wet wipes to sanitize things you touch. its cheap too.

another thing is the Mask. also bloody cheap. about RM 1 each. available in drug store too..
[P/s = drug store in Malaysia are Watson and Guardian among others.. hehe]



So for less than RM5 u can help save urself and others. Please be responsible. Here is wat i found over the internet.

The H1N1 Swine Flu can only really be confirmed with an actual lab test. And, there isn’t a 100% tell tale sign in the form that you have novel h1n1 influenza. It would be nice if your skin turned bright pink or you started oinking uncontrollably. If only we were that lucky.
It’s not close to 100%, but there is one sign that hints that an adult might have the swine flu.

Diarrhea and Vomiting.

Adults don’t normally have diarrhea with the flu. That is usually only common with kids.
Otherwise Swine Flu has the same symptoms as regular flu including:
Fever
Sore Throat
Nasal
Cough
Respiratory Problems
Body Aches

Remember, having Diarrhea and Vomiting is only an indicator. You can still have the h1n1 swine flu without these symptoms. And that also holds true for the other way around. You still might just have the regular seasonal flu accompanied with diarrhea and vomiting.

Only a lab test will confirm h1n1 flu.

Also remember this doesn’t include children. It’s not uncommon for children to have the all the swine flu type symptoms with the regular flu. And with kids it’s better to be safe then sorry, so take them to the doctor.



With the swine flu on the rise in the US and an outbreak appears to be unavoidable. You can do a lot to protect yourself and your loved ones from the swine flu. Imagine pushing shopping cart around the store. You touch it then you eat or if your a smoke your fingers touch the filter that touches your lips. Sanitize those shopping carts before your use them with wipes that are now provided at most stores. When you leave the store wash your hands or use waterless alcohol sanitizer. Just think about the money you touched too.


i just think its better be safe than sorry. if everyone is playing their part. be responsible and not be selfish, things will get better. Eat well, take care, be aware. Avoid crowds and don't get too close with alot of strangers.

May Allah protects us all and this will go away...
