Pigs everywhere are making a mad dash to buy surgical masks.

We're on the cusp of flu season, and Dallas-area officials are gearing up for a more severe bout. We've of course tangled the swine flu in with the regular flu, and together, hospitals, clinics, and schools are counting on twice as many sick people.

Part of the problem is spreading the sickness, like in schools or at work. To fight it, Dallas officials are suggesting people get a new H1N1 vaccine. Officials say you'll need two doses of that vaccine and a third to fight against seasonal flu -- though they're already afraid they'll run out of the vaccines before they arrive in October.

YEA this is the last story I will comment on today, while this is a very serious situation to come, I was bit back in April with a cough that lasted some 14 days...and then I recall I did get a swine flu shot back in 1973,and I was sick from that dose, but ....The recent rags from the North are not telling fibs...this bug is back again...

So on that note , wipe down what you touch when your Downtown with the Immigrants and cover your mouth when you cough...have a great week folks...A/T, Time to move onto Allen and make good of the sunshine...
