Do you care to travel abroad now that there's an epidemic disease alert?

Hi Gangis, I would try to avoid traveling, or scheduling any business/leisure trips. My concern is not only about catching the infection, but infecting others as well.

I care and worried about it..I'm thinking what if it gets to my area and spread. I think its best to avoid traveling out of my country until the flu is overcome. But I am glad that the government takes precaution about this.

I guess it doesn't really matter considering that the swine flu is here in the states too.But,it seems to be deadly in Mexico.I would not want to go to Mexico.

I went to South Africa and whilst there did see some adverts that were a bit worrying like about TB. I have been to countries where there has been a risk of catching malaria. There is a risk of illness in any country. I wouldn't want to visit Mexico because the risk of catching the swine flu there is strong. I am glad that I have already been to lovely Mexico. I will still travel to countries where there is less risk of catching swine flu.

Hi gangis,
I donĀ“t mind diseases that much. I think that you can get sick anywhere and you can take some precautions not to get sick. As for the swine flu, the media has made a worse thing than it is. Aviar fleu was worst and we survived.
