hahah if this carries on, schools will be closed in no time. we just have to wait for 1 case to reach singapore, and then exams will be postponed, we slack at home. It's just a matter of time. But anyway i dont think that this virus is that BAD. Its just that it has the potential to be super lethal and makes life really uncertain. Like I can pass the virus to you without showing any symptoms in the first place, then 7 days later I have fever and whatever but its too late, because you'd have it by then too. Thats SCARY. But thats the small picture. If you see it as a big picture, it ain't that bad.
1. The total number of people who have swine flu currently are less than 1000. Those who have died in mexico and the few in other countries total less than 250. Compare this to the world population of 6000,000,000. IT AIN'T THAT BAD!
2. Most people who get swine flu recover and don't die, but the minority who do, get highlighted.
3. Cancer and SARS are probably worse.
4. The hype is all about UNCERTAINTY. But the probability of getting it is super low.
5. Don't WORRY!!
If this thing reaches stage 6 and school is still not closed, then all those who have died so far, have died for nothing. what a waste it would be.
There's chem tuition tomorrow! heee its always so fun. Elizabeth and her positive laughing energy. Today and yesterday we had chem remedial in school, alex lee is super enthusiastic. Weekends and public holidays. Chem's been goooood. I got about 79% for two multiple choice papers. Then learnt from mistakes and re-did. 100%!! Yay!
