well this matter is about the ah1n1 cases. as we all know, this diseases have been an epidemic calamity to all our countries. this have already killed hundreds of people all over the world and still in the stage of scaring the wits of all of us. we live here in Mindanao, Philippines. its just now that this virus has attacked our place. just a day ago two schools has suspended classes due to this illnesses. many children have been found positive with it. then came my concern for my father and nephew. my dad is a diabetic and i guess some of us here knows that a diabetic person can easily get sick because of their low immune system and the complications always take place. just a year ago my dad got pneumonia and i know how ah1n1 love this kind of persons with weak systems. we already got 3 people who died from this virus. and all of them got other illnesses aside from ah1n1. and because of the complications, they did died. but not because of ah1n1 but partly it has something to do with it as well. but because their immune system become so weak that their anti bodies has no effect on the said diseases. so by now i always told my dad not to go out. and if ever we really wanted to, i want him to keep away from so much crowded places, wear his mask and just be plain clean with his hands. i am really afraid because i may not know how this will affect all of us here in our city and mostly afraid for my dad's health. but being cautious is still the best thing to do for a moment, right friends? and pray that all of this may end soon. as not to give problems and terrorized our country and community. thanks friends jhelai

I think there's a reason for all of this..but for me one of those reasons was for GOD to remind us to whom we need to call for. these plague is probably one of those test about our faith to GOD. insane as it should be but i see it all the time. we take things for granted, and then this plague came to make us realize how we are taking good things for granted.and not giving it importance.well, i can say is that be careful and pray..

a very well posted response my friend. and you are so right. GOd never gives us a problem that we cannot even solve. and because of our hectic schedules and loss of time, we always forgotten that there is more to life than money. all of this are justtest of God to us to make us remind of His greatness and he is not to be taken for granted. all os his came for a reason. what is important now is to pray and through it all always ask help, guidance and thanks to our Almighty God. thanks so much friend for a very nice response. jhelai

WHO(World Health Organisation) has already taken note of this very seriously. They have come up with vaccination for this. Keep praying. May God stop it from spreading further. Hope happy days are back again.
