The radio adverts warning about swine flu are made to sound like they're being spoken over a tannoy, making it sound a lot like being in a chapter of 1984. I wonder when the radio will start doing tannoy-type announcements over the radio about war, it freaked me out the first time I heard it.

Don't forget the conspiracy that it's just a media scare to make us all forget about the recession.

Swine influenza is a contagious respiratory disease that normally only affects pigs. It is commonly caused by H1N1 strains of swine influenza A virus. However, other strains, such as H1N2, H3N1 and H3N2 also circulate in pigs. While it is not usual for people to get swine flu, human infections do occasionally happen, mainly after close contact with infected pigs.

Don't forget, it's still safe to eat pork...
