Has anyone seen the Battle the Bug site made by Kleenex? It has a flu tracker that tells you what states have the most cases of the flu - with all of the swine flu talk lately I thought it would be a nice thing to share

I checked it out. I think it's a gimmick to get people to their site. WHile it's neat, it really doesn't tell you much. Everyone's trying to find soemthing different to attract new traffic. I guess this is their attempt.

This area has had two teens die from the swine flu within the past week. And a couple schools were recently closed.

Anti-viral tissues, hey? Don't know about that. Perhaps, Dotsie
is right; and it's a gimmick. If they worked, it'd be cool!

jabber, I didn't know people were still getting the swine flu. How sad. Do you know any kids in the school system?

Dotsie,
All I know is, cute kids are dying around here. One was age 15
and one age 9. A young man age 16 is currently hospitalized with it. Swine flu is pickin' up steam in these parts. And that's sort of scary!

Haven't heard much lately on the news about this flu! I wonder if it isn't as bad as they thought or worse and we aren't suppose to know.

The media started calling it something other than "swine flu"
because people stopped buying pork. Perhaps, that's one cause of their hush, hush effect.
