Swine flu, now known as influenza A H1N1, is a type of influenza virus. This is a new strain of influenza that has been only recently that affect people. It is not caught by the pigs or eat pork. It is a human influenza virus and spread by people. Believed to be a combination of three types of influenza – Swine Flu, avian flu and human flu. The new strain is extremely contagious and is spreading rapidly throughout the world.
H1N1 is different from other strains of influenza. This strain of influenza has not been previously exposed to humans before so there is no built immunities to it. This is what makes it so serious. At present there is no prevention drug that can be taken to avoid it. That’s why people who are elderly, very young or those with compromised immune systems should be extremely careful to avoid getting the flu.
