Some of the questions are easier to answer than others, but there is a lot of factual information out there about what is safe and what is not at this point in time.

How do you get swine flu?

Swine flu is much like many other types of flu viruses, in that it is spread through unhygienic actions, and can be worst in groups of people. Precautions should include cleanliness, washing of the hands, not being in an environment where the swine flu has been spotted, and keeping quarantined those individuals that could be suffering from it. Swine influenza, unlike bird flu previously, is able to be passed from human to human through direct contact. Keeping that in mind, it is a good idea to preach cleanliness to your friends and family, and believe the CDC when they are stating that this is something that can be dealt with.

Where does swine flu come from?

The original strain of the virus is thought to have come from pigs, but has adapted itself so that it is now transmitted among humans. This isn't unlike many other diseases that have adapted in the same manner, and it doesn't mean that pigs are any less safe as a result, just that humans need to take every precaution when dealing with them. The particular strain of the swine virus, which everyone is reading about, is coming from Mexico. Right now, the strain of swine flu that the CDC is dealing with can be treated by two drugs that are showing good success rates.

What are swine flu symptoms?

- Sudden Fever
- Lethargy
- Loss of Appetite
- Excessive Coughing
- Sore Throat
- Diarrhea
- Vomiting
- Nausea

Is it safe to eat pork?

The Alabama Farmer's Federation has stated that "Swine flu is not transmitted by food and the subtype affecting humans in Mexico and the United States has not been found in pigs and hogs. "Families can have confidence that the pork they purchase is safe to eat, and there is no reason to be concerned if you live or work near a pork production facility."
