So with no news stories for about 6 months now in regards to swine flu, it seems that swine flu has well and truly died down. This is not to say I'll simply close this blog down though, as I still believe by keeping up to date with the news and posting relevant articles we can still help to keep this in the public consciousness, and in case the influenza ever comes back in perhaps a more virulent form we shall remember what we learnt from the H1N1 outbreak in 2009.
I found this interesting press release from the Ministry of Health in New Zealand echoing the fact that swine flu cases are now below baseline levels and there's no cause for concern at the moment: http://www.nzdoctor.co.nz/un-doctored/2010/september-2010/30/pandemic-influenza-h1n1-2009-(swine-flu)---update-210-.aspx
If you hear of any other news stories related to swine flu or similar influenzas you're welcome to share them here.
