But Mom, All the Cool Kids Have Swine Flu!

Of course they all have swine flu. Of course they do.

Kids Who Cried “Pig”? Suspected Flu Cases Increase
(Kim P., Seattlest, 1 May 2009)

Kids must be smarter than we give them credit–those little stinkers might be pulling a “Oh, I’m sick, I have swine flu and can’t go to school” after hearing Madrona K-8 closed for an entire week. Currently, seven of King County’s ten suspected cases of Swine flu H1N1 flu have infected children and teens. More local schools where a “suspected case” has attended classes are now closed as a precaution.

Yum Huh.

    That’s a little disturbing, isn’t it?

    Little Timmy says, “Mommy, I don’t feel well,” so the whole district shuts down?

    How come that didn’t work when I was a kid?

    People were smarter?
