H1N1 is nothing to worry about, it appears. The cases reported in the country did not originate here and are all under control. To ensure health protection, wear a mask. Avoid crowds. The good news is, the virus can transfer only upon direct contact with a carrier. And according to experts, it (the virus, not the carrier) can be easily killed by soap and water. So hand-washing is a good habit to have. Wash, wash, wash your hands as often as possible. Take a small bottle of 70 percent alcohol with you when you go out. Better if you take a bath after spending some time out with crowds. And make sure to take your health supplements.

Hey, it's just a flu virus. But do take extra care. Okay?
