Most of the human race is now aware of the news outbreak about Swine Flu —

but are we aware of the signs and symptoms of swine flu? We already know

how to prevent but the signs and symptoms is still a puzzle in our mind. 

Well, through this article, I will give you insights if you are now a

victim of Swine Flu virus.

But before, we proceed let me introduce to you first about Swine Flu.  The

3-10% of the global population estimated to affect the yearly influenza

epidemics that can be a result in severe illness in 3–4 million patients

and causing 200,000–400,000 deaths worldwide.  Severe illness and deaths

occur mainly in the high-risk populations of infants, the elderly, pregnant

women and chronically ill patients in industrialized nations. 

In addition to these yearly epidemics, the influenza A virus has caused

three major global pandemics during the 20th century: there was the Spanish

flu in 1918, the Asian flu in 1957 and in 1968–69 was the Hong Kong flu.

These pandemics were caused by an Influenza A virus that had undergone

major genetic changes, due to which the population did not possess

significant immunity.

In pigs influenza infection produces lethargy, sneezing, fever, coughing,

difficulty breathing and decreased appetite.  In some cases especially the

pregnant women, the infection can cause abortion.  Although mortality is

usually low (around 1-3%), the virus can produce weight loss and poor

growth, causing economic loss to farmers.  Infected pigs can lose up to 10

pounds of body weight over a 2 to 3 week period.

Main symptoms of swine flu in humans can be a direct transmission of a

swine flu virus from pigs to humans is occasionally possible (called

zoonotic swine flu). Under phase one, an animal outbreak of flu symptoms in

your hog race backyard.

In phase two considered when the owner within the hog race backyard got

infected with a flu from their animal symptoms.

Phase 3 reviewed when a child within the hog race backyard got infected

together with his father, his mother and his siblings. The fourth phase,

there is a cause of community-level outbreaks of human-to-human

transmission of an animal or human-animal flu virus.  This phase will focus

to contain the spreading of the virus.

Countries will be informed asking to advice their people such as traveling

to containment areas.  All countries with infected with the swine flu must

also consider in deploying a pandemic vaccine.  (e.g. when the infected

family member went out from their backyard decided to talk to his friends

and unaware that he’s spreading the virus.)

Second to the last phase, when a man-infected virus either a family member

or any of his friends travel to another neighboring country.  You will know

if there your country is in a phase 5 dominant when there is an

announcement suspension of classes because of flu spread out. 

This final and a pandemic phase is just like when an unaware man-infected

virus travel to another continent unaware that he spread out the Swine Flu

virus to another races.  Now with the above mentioned signs and symptoms,

you are now ready to plan and prepare immediately of the possible attacks

of the Swine Flu virus.  Consult to different agencies that concerns with

the Swine Flu pandemics.
