Groo the Wanderer Posted April 29, 2009 Share Posted April 29, 2009 There is some concern about what may happen if the virus from the current Swine Flu outbreak were to mutate and meld with the virus from the Bird Flu outbreak of a few years past. Scientists are not sure what would be the result. I suppose that'll be the day pigs fly... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cmotherofpirl Posted April 29, 2009 Share Posted April 29, 2009 91 confirmed US cases: New York City, California, and Texas with the highest numbers. You can google map it remembering there is at least a 48 hour lag time between infection and symptoms. Updates can be found at CDC.gov at 11 and 3 EST Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CatherineM Posted April 29, 2009 Share Posted April 29, 2009 You definitely don't want to get the flu when pregnant. There is some hard research that is one of the big ways that your kid can end up with schizophrenia. That and being around cat feces. So no cleaning of litter boxes either.
