00032:N1H1 in Shanghai....

     Government carried out a free vaccination program for students in primary and secondary school in Shanghai today.  It was reported that nearly 80 percent of the students join in the vaccination program. According to the policy, the whole class will not be able to be access to the vaccination if one of the students in this class has been being affected seasonal flu. And those students will take vaccination in 7 days later after the sick one recover. It is a good way to eliminate and reduce adverse effect of N1H1 vaccination into the largest extent.

    The second round of N1H1 influenza has geared up all over the world, which is also on the rise in China.  In total, the Chinese mainland has reported  59478 confirmed cases of the virus by Nov 8th, including 242 serious cases and  30 died cases. In the early spread of the flu, the majority of cases came from abroad, while currently, more and more citizens are being infected within the country. The infection of N1H1 is estimated to account for 80% of the total influenza cases, reported by authority. I can see more and more people are wearing mask in the metro trains, including me.LOL.... 
   
    It was ridiculous that the Chinese media(newspaper and Internet) reported quite officially that a new kind of high-tech N1H1 mask had been successfully invented, which could kill nearly 92% N1H1 viruses. However, director of National Influenza Testing Center declared the new N1H1 virus masks had never been tested and  verified by any Chinese authority yesterday. Some doctors also wrote articles on the local newspaper and said most of masks with 9 layer fabric could prevent N1H1 viruses effectively.
