pig fever


Do these pigs look feverish to you?

Today the Human Resources department forwarded the entire office a Swine Flu Newsletter. It’s pretty comprehensive. My favorite section is titled: “What should I do if I am in regular contact with pigs?”

Swine Flu Newsletter offers helpful tips for how to avoid contracting or spreading swine flu, such as:
“Cover your mouth and nose with disposable tissues when coughing and sneezing and dispose of the used tissues properly.”
And:
“If there is an ill person at home, try to provide the ill person a separate section in the house. If this is not possible, keep the patient at least 1 meter in distance from others.”
Or:
“Take care to cover your nose and mouth during travel.”

I can’t wait for next week’s issue of Swine Flu Newsletter, which I’m sure will feature tips on stocking your pandemic bunker and step-by-step instructions on how to throw your ailing loved ones into a pit of quicklime.
