Very sad news, and actually quite worrying.

I agree. We are keeping in the wee ones ...a bit Parnoid but I want to see what happens over the next week. we will keep visits to a minimum. The deaths are so sad but a two year old.... I don't want to think about it.

Im waiting to see the first person in public with one on

I read that face masks are useless,as soon as they become moist by breath .You'd have to wear about 40 a day.

I'd rather take my chances with a face mask than with nothing..the minister for swine flu said they were useless but when asked what should we do he said to cover ones mouth..

Joking aside - I'm getting worried now....just had a case diagnosed in Devon, Paignton...not that far from us...12 year old girl and they've closed the school and every fink.

I've got three kids so probably am just being an over protective Mum....but still can't help feeling a wee bit scared now. My eldest is the same age as the girl in Paignton.
