Yesterday in Beijing of China a abroad student who has just return China from USA was confirmed to have swine flu . This is the third patient in our country . All the infected returned our homeland from America .So some voice comes out that someone refuses abroad students' coming back homeland from America or other countries.Because they will bring a big pinic of swine flu or more dangerous affairs .But someone think they are only students who need help from motherland . So what do you think about it ?

I also agree that they should get treatment first and then send home. They are young people who are sick and thye are going to need the support of their families and loved ones. The situation will obviously be handled in such a way that the infection could not spread, so China should be safe.
I don't want to imagine that, if I were a parent, my child is ill in a far off country. I would want to be able to visit him/her in some way or another, even if I could juat see them though a glass window to let them know I am there. That will give the student more support in the already bad situation they are in.
I hpoe this swine flu does not have any further impact on your country, and that you are safe.
Blessings

Yes all parents are worring about their kids who are staying in America or others . Yes sick perosons need the supports of family or his homeland . But there is a big risk for people of motherland . Once they bring swine flu from foreign countries there is a panic among people locating around infected ones . In our China , our president and government pay a serious attention on swine flu . So all kinds of emergency ways are made out for next patient . So we have much experience that has been used to conquer SARS . So we are not afraid of it .
