In Canada, the cases of Swine Flu have thus far been fairly mild thank God. No Flu is fun but this doesn't sound like a killer. All we can do is hope for the best.
I'm really disappointed that the Canadian government is blocking one of our own people from coming home because of some bureaucratic paranoia about this Flu that she doesn't have. Surely there is a way to get her home. She is a Canadian.
Let her wait, if she doesn't have the flu she'll be back in a week or two, or does the gov of Canada not have the right to take steps to make sure the Mexican variant does not come here. It would seem to be considerably more deadly. You should fly down and meet her her and give her a warm hug and a kiss on the lips, after all there is nothing to be concerned about, it's only a mild flu right?
How , many has this 'non-fatal flu' killed in Mexico? I hear it is over 100 already.
