Vaccines are made new each year and medical technology has advanced slightly since the 1970's.
I was reading they are hoping to have a vaccine ready for the fall.
When ever I go out to the store I wash my hands when I come home. My father in law is the same way. My husband is always smoothing his moustache with his fingers. It is a bad habit he has. I have tried to get him to stop again and again. Especially during flu season. I understand being blind he wants to make sure his moustache looks ok but that is not a good habit to have. He hangs onto the handle of the shopping carts and I pull the front. Anything on that handle he is putting right on his lips.
He says he doesnt care if he gets it and I say anything you get Im gonna get lol. When ever we get back into the car I put some antibacterial gel into his hands but that doesnt help the dozen or so times he has touched his face in the store. Im sure one reason he does it is boredom. Jon has scar tissue in one of his lungs from when he was in ARDS while in the coma after his accident years ago. I have asthma that has gotten worse the past year. I try and avoid flu of any kind for us both. I had a bad case of flu about a month ago I caught from my young niece who came home from school with it. Took me a solid month to kick that one.
I would just assume skip flu of any sort.

I was telling myself not that long ago that when the day comes when I win the Mega Millions lottery, pigs will fly. Then today I see the headlines in the news: The Swine Flu.. Maybe it is a sign.
I noticed yesterday when the sales papers for the two grocery stores here in town came in the mail that pork prices are dropping. .98 a pound a one store.
I occasionally buy pork to fix for Jon. I havent been able to eat it for years now.
