The Mask Show

All must be familiar with the mask picture. I just noticed 9/10 people wearing either kerchief or a mask. But some people wear it just for fashion. Swine Flu is nothing but a H1N1 virus which can be treated if we diagnose in early stages. These masks doesn't prevent you from being affected. As the flu is now spreading by people-to-people to contact, the infection primarily spreads when a person comes in close contact with an infected person. The simple way to minimise the risk is by covering the mouth and nose while coughing and sneezing and wearing a mask while going close to the infected person. So this doen't require a constant wear of mask.
