Is swine flu spreads from egg? | Swine flu and egg | Swine flu vaccination

A rumour is spreading fast that swine flu is spreading through chicken egg and they claim that the news is released by National Insitute of virology, pune, India.

Actually there is nothing like that. The fact is swine flu vaccine contains egg, and it seems during trails it developed some allergy to those who are allergic to egg.....

So dont feel panic.... EAT CHICKEN!!!!!! EAT EGG!!!!! STAY HEALTHY!!!!!

Symptoms of Swine flu/H1N1 virus

Swine Flu Symptoms

According to the CDC, like seasonal flu, symptoms of swine flu infections can include:

  • fever, which is usually high, but unlike seasonal flu, is sometimes absent
  • cough
  • runny nose or stuffy nose
  • sore throat
  • body aches
  • headache
  • chills
  • fatigue or tiredness, which can be extreme
  • diarrhea and vomiting, sometimes, but more commonly seen than with seasonal flu

Signs of a more serious swine flu infection might include pneumonia and respiratory failure.

If your child has symptoms of swine flu, you should avoid other people and call your pediatrician who might do a rapid flu test to see if he has an influenza A infection. Further testing can then be done to see if it is a swine flu infection. (Samples can be sent to local and state health departments and the CDC for confirmation of swine flu, especially if a child is in the hospital.)
