With every disease come falsely knit stories which over a period become our beliefs and we do not even question them. Swine flu is no exception. Let us see what is prevalent out there along with the outbreak
I Would Get Swine Flu if I Eat Pork
Come on guys. It is swine flu and it ha snothing similar to Mad Cow Disease. The disease spreads via contact with a contaminated area or person then contact with either the eyes, nose, or mouth of the prospective infected.
Cooked pork can’t possibly be ever infected because cooking and preparation make sure that the meat is clean and healthy for consumption.
There Is No Treatment
If you had said there is no vaccine we would have nodded head in agreement. But it is under research and would be out soon. Therre is a treatment available.
Zanamivir and oseltamivir are neuroaminidase inhibitors i.e. they’re a type of antiviral drugs that inhibits cell reproduction of viruses so that they won’t spread in the patient’s body. The Center for Disease Control has highly recommended their use for the treatment and control of the disease.
If I Get I Would Die
Yes! the disease has potential to kill but most people make recovery. It is treatable and you can recover from it.
It Is not that contagious
It is a contagious disease. It spreads through the contact points and droplet infections. Regularly washing your hands before eating is a step in the right direction. If you have this disease in your city, social distancing is a good idea.
lastly evrey flu is not Swine flu. yuou can still get affected by regular flu. Colds, coughs, chills, and fatigue ar ethe usual signs. If you’re okay after a few days, that was just the normal flu. However, if the symptoms persist or you start to vomit or start to suffer from diarrhea, then it’s swine flu and you better call for a doctor.
