“Jody Matz was your typical, fun-loving 30-year-old young lady when she developed body aches and a bad headache on Saturday, October 17. She went to Bonner General Hospital Immediate Care and was put on intensive ibuprofen. On Tuesday, with fever, congestion and ear aches, she returned and was diagnosed as having contracted influenza A, the predominant strain of which is the H1N1 referred to as swine flu. ” http://riverjournal.com/vivvo/news/swineflunorthidaho_jodymatz_gannon_112009.html

I’ve had a lot of family members who say they’ve had the swine flu. Has it touched your family/friends/coworkers yet?
