Does the H1N1 flu worry you?听Dalnews听reporter Simin Fahandej asked some 黄色直播 students about the swine flu and here鈥檚 what they said:
鈥淧ersonally I don鈥檛 feel it鈥檚 a concern. There are other viruses that kill more Canadians per capita. I think there鈥檚 been a lot of media press about it, more than other ones. It鈥檚 not worth being concerned over. Given that, I wash my hands, try to be healthy and use common sense in general to protect myself.鈥 鈥 Tina Danese | 听 | ||
鈥淚 don鈥檛 really care鈥on鈥檛 touch me, don鈥檛 come near me. If somebody coughs I run, somebody sneezes, I run. I鈥檓 not really worried about it though. I feel I have a good immune system so I drink a lot of water, orange juice and I stay away from people who show the symptoms.鈥 鈥 Cory Cromwell | |||
鈥淚t鈥檚 the media hype, if you keep something on the news long enough, it will become important. It鈥檚 less personally a concern for me. But I keep my sanitary precautions and keep myself clean.鈥 鈥 Ian Cox |

鈥淭he truth is I鈥檓 not doing so much. Back in my country people are very cautious about these things because we have quite a number of people who died but here I think people are more relaxed about it鈥 A lot of sanitizers everywhere which is very good and I think just keep yourself clean. In Indonesia everyone鈥檚 wearing a mask. In the airport people are checking you. But coming to Canada 鈥 it鈥檚 more relaxed here.鈥 鈥 Azira Binti Yusran |

鈥淚鈥檓 not taking any extra precautions. At (dentistry) school we鈥檙e using standard precautions as they do in dental clinics, washing hands, using hand sanitizers. But it鈥檚 not really a concern for me.鈥 鈥 Ian MacAskill |

鈥淢y wife鈥檚 pregnant so I鈥檓 going to get the flu shot this year but only because I鈥檓 told to get a flu shot by my wife鈥檚 doctor. I also work at a restaurant. I鈥檝e never got a flu shot before. But this whole H1N1 thing is pretty ridiculous, if you ask me. I mean it鈥檚 unfortunate that people are getting sick and some people are dying but I don鈥檛 know if you guys remember SARS鈥f people just relax and stop using Purell 75 times a day it will wear off.鈥 鈥 Aidan West |

鈥淲e鈥檙e definitely aware of it from being told in class, which is good. It will probably reduce the spread of not just H1N1 but colds in general. But I don鈥檛 feel like it鈥檚 that serious. There isn鈥檛 this cloud of fear over everyone at all. I鈥檓 not overly concerned but I try to keep my personal hygiene as best possible.鈥 鈥 Barbara England |
