Monday’s Health Tip: Clean out Your Medicine Cabinet!
Swine flu (H1N1 for you proper folks) is running amok. Knock on wood, I haven’t gotten sick, and none of my friends or family has been unfortunate enough to catch this icky virus. But, a few acquaintances, friends of friends, and friend’s family members have gotten it, and from what I’ve heard, it’s a real bear to deal with.
Aside from the flu, this time of year is chock-full of other fabulous illnesses, including the regular flu and the common cold. That’s why it’s so important to make sure your medicine cabinet is fully stocked…with fresh medicine.

Because we all needed another reason to fear swine flu
To be honest, until recently I just wasn't concerned about swine flu. Sure, it targets the young and healthy, and I'm young and healthy, but how bad could it really be? I'm young and healthy! Even as more and more people started coming down with it -- even two of our own bloggers -- they all seemed to recover after a few days. Big whoop.
That was before I found out about the Cytokine Storm.

Swine flu serum
It's finally here, the vaccine to save the world! Well, not the world, but hopefully to reduce the cases of swine flu...err..I mean H1N1.

H1N1-101
Because I don’t have enough to worry about these days lately, I’ve been (finally) pretty worried about the swine flu.

Swine flu, swine flu everywhere
First there was bird flu and now we get to experience swine flu. Quick! Get a surgical mask, wash your hands, lock your doors, and don’t go outside. No, just kidding, don’t do that. Well, wash your hands, but you don’t have to quarantine yourself (unless you actually have swine flu, then stay away from me!)
