The World Health Organization (WHO) said today that we shouldn’t allow ourselves to gain a false sense of security from the current mild outbreak of H1N1. WHO cautions that the worst may be yet to come.
Well, no one wants to hear that just when fears seem to be subsiding, but perhaps it’s smart to listen. And keep up with the good hand washing!
WHO says that around 7,520 people in 34 different countries have been infected with the flu strain so far. However, WHO isn’t recommending travel restrictions because of the virus.
