Swine Flu

<p>Is anyone worried about this flu and college campuses? Just considering that there are so many students from all over the world and many travel through study abroad and recently with spring break. curious</p>

<p>Many will be smart enough not to fly to Mexico…</p>

<p>And WHO just turned the grade 4 into a 5 on the 6graded scale :O</p>

<p>UDEL thread just confirmed possibility of 10 cases on campus…IMO, that’s all she wrote…college campuses and with kids coming home in the next few weeks; going to be difficult to contain…</p>

<p>The medical school asked all students to report this morning whether they’ve been to Mexico recently or are planning to travel there before the beginning of the fall semester. I assume all of the Harvard schools are collecting this information.</p>

<p>HUHS (Harvard University Health Services) sent an e-mail tonight warning the population, so the college has definitely been informed, probably as well the entire graduate school population, staff, and faculty.</p>

<p>Thanks for the info.</p>

<p>It’s on the Harvard website:</p>

<p>[Harvard</a> monitoring swine flu situation — The Harvard University Gazette](<a href=“http://www.news.harvard.edu/gazette/2009/04.30/99-flu.html]Harvard”>http://www.news.harvard.edu/gazette/2009/04.30/99-flu.html)</p>

<p>The first two cases of Swine Flu have arrived in Massachusetts–in Lowell, north of Boston.</p>

<p>Sorry, I just read the above article–it is already noted there.</p>

<p>has their been any new info on the Swine Flu virus at Harvard recently? Thanks in advance.</p>

<p>The medical and dental schools were closed Friday and today, but classes will resume tomorrow. There are something like 10 dental students with probable cases, but they’re all recovering well, and new cases related to these seem to have stopped coming in.</p>

<p>Thanks mollie! hopefully it’s slowing down now.</p>
