Swine flu hits Dunoon…

swine flu

So, Dunoon is famous. Infectious even.

As of today, there are 18 suspected cases of swine flu in our little town. Emily’s year have been sent home from school and told not to associate with people for a week. Two of my workers are off because one of their families is suspected of having the virus too.

The hospital is just about at meltdown, testing and chasing down folk who have had sustained contact with those infected. The good news is that those who are suffering seem to be OK, and the Tamiflu vaccine is said to be effective.

Of course, Emily is very pleased to be off school however!

There is some footage from the news here.

    • Hey Stewart!

      Yes- for the good of the country, we are sacrificing ourselves by declaring the Cowal peninsular a toxic zone!

      hope you are OK…

  1. I’m doing well thanks Chris. My step-son was at the Rangers game in Dundee where the outbreak was traced to so bit concerned but he seems ok so far!

    Shame you couldn’t make the meet up… but now kind of glad you didn’t!

    Hope all is well with you and yours.
