People also go to different country to take proper treatment. Some of the countries which are high in giving Proper developed Health Care are Canada , U.K , U.S.

In Canada Health Care is given in a very proper way and on a national basis.But some of the false Myth of the Canadian Health Care are that Canadian Health Care system has high paying taxes. But according to me we are getting first proper treatment of and proper care is taken of our health so we should not see the money. Canada 411 is the best place to search for proper Health Care system in Canada.

Besides this are other different types of false myths in the Canadian Health Care system like Canada Health Care system is Socialized health Care which is false statement. Canadian doctors work for each and every citizen of their nation.

What is Swine Flu?This is the question arising all over the world.Till now Swine Flu was limited to some foreign countries only like America and some other countries.In foreign countries thousands of people were affected from Swine Flu and some died also.Government from all over the world declared and gave new name to Swine Flu which is called H1N1..Actually this Swine Flu is a disease which has came from Swine and this is a kind of Virus.But now from past few days this Virus has made a terror in India.Just in a few days nearly the people affected to Swine Flu reached hundred people.The most affected city in India with Swine Flu is Pune.Nearly 4 people died in last two three days due to Swine Flu.The first person to die with Swine Flu was a 14 year old girl in Pune.After that also 2-3 people died.And due to this Government declared Alert in Pune and everything in Pune including Cinemas,Malls,Schools and Colleges are declared closed for a week.Another case of Swine Flu came out in Ahmedabad where a Man who came from Atlanta died while in hospital.

But the question is that why people are fearing so much due to Swine Flu?While the rate of people dying is less than 1%.In the world nearly lacs of people die due to Cancer,TB and other danger diseases every year and people are not fearing from this and why fearing from Swine Flu?The reason is that Multinational companies want to sell their medicines called Tamiflu which was specially made for Bird Flu which attacked world last year.But as Bird Flu was mostly limited to birds only human’s were not affected so this companies by accompanying with World Heath Organization are trying to make people fear so that people take this medicine “Tamiflu” in large quantity and ultimately multinational companies earn millions.This companies by giving danger advertisements like this much people died due to Swine Flu in local newspapers and TV channels as headlines which make people fear a lot.So this is the main reason why people fear so much due to Swine Flu.So people stop fearing from it and do not come in direct contact with person affected with Swine Flu and in this way Swine Flu affection can be prevented.

SYMTOMS OF SWINE FLU -

Swine influenza virus (SIV) is caused by Orthomyxoviruses that are endemic to pig populations. SIV strains isolated to date have been classified either as Influenzavirus C or one of the various subtypes of the genus Influenzavirus A.

Swine flu, unlike bird flu, is able to pass from human to human contact. The 2009 swine flu outbreak is the spread of a new strain of H1N1 influenza virus that was first detected by public health agencies in March 2009. Local outbreaks of influenza-like illness were detected in three areas of Mexico, but the presence of this new strain was not discovered for a month.

Following this discovery in the parts of United States bordering Mexico, its presence was swiftly confirmed in the local outbreaks in Mexico, and in isolated cases elsewhere. By April 27, the new strain was confirmed also in Canada, Spain, and the United Kingdom and suspected in many other nations, with over 1,800 candidate cases.

The new strain is an apparent reassortment of several strains of influenza A virus subtype H1N1, including a strain endemic in humans and two strains endemic in pigs, as well as an avian influenza.

Reassortment is common in influenza viruses, due to the structure of their genome. This particular reassortment is consistent with a transmission of swine influenza from pig to human combined with the mixing of two viral infections in the same person.

Many countries confirmed that inbound international passengers will be screened. Typical airport health screening involves asking passengers which countries they have visited and checking whether they feel or look particularly unwell.

On April 27, the CDC recommended the use of Tamiflu and Relenza for both treatment and prevention of the new strain.

Some physicians in the US are recommending the use of masks when in public. The purpose of a face mask is to effectively cover a person’s mouth and nose so that if a person is around someone who is infected, there is a decreased likelihood of transmission.
