H1N1 post blog thingy

everyone is going balistic over the rising number of piggy flu cases.

currently Brunei has about 93 cases and a 12 year old girl just died of it yesterday.

My fren told me that her cousin got the swine flu and seriously, the Brunei hospital is just stupid.

She went to check, they asked her to go home and WAIT for the test results. Then called her to say that she was clear and called back again later to say there was a mix up and that she has the virus. WTH!! You told the person to GO HOME and WAIT for the test results??!! And now probably the whole family infected and is now currently quarantined.

tsk tsk tsk... *shakes head*

Another thing, at the airport, if one person is detected to have the virus, he/she is quarantined and not the whole flight's of passengers. And they only check when the person is exiting and right before immigration. Doesn't that mean the virus can be flying all about. PLUS, people who are only of transit flight are not checked. Like how stupid can you get??

Now holidays are extended. We're missing a week's worth of school (its alot for a form 6 student!!) and because one girl died, there is possibility of more extended holidays.

Honestly, Brunei is over reacting. This just shows how unprepared the country actually is when a crisis does arise.
