H1N1


Home quarantined. Seriously, I never taught that it would happen to me... and I'm actually very confused on the guidelines of being home quarantine too... How do we really monitor and control the viruses from getting it widely spread?

My colleague was confirmed to have infected with the latest hottest virus in town H1N1...
Everyone in my company was paranoid because of this, and therefore we're closed down for 5 days for quarantine purposes. We're all sent back home for quarantine until today.
Not much difference in the office except for some of my colleagues who started to wear on their mask... +_+''' well, it for the hygiene and safety purposes... but if i'm not mistaken our office was 'disinfected' during the weekend, so i guess its safe to say that we're now safe to continue work in this infamous 1st private sector that declared to be infected with H1N1...

We were on TV, Ntv7's Mandarin News... they covered the news about our company's condition... making us the 1st private sector that closed down to quarantine... Hmm... Free publicity? hehehe... some of my friends even called up to ask whether the company that the news mentioned was the company i was working for... hmm...

But seriously... H1N1 is really freaking everyone out... though there's still no fatal cases due to this virus, yet... (In Malaysia specifically), but it is really spreading out, spreading among us real fast! But come to think of it, its really hard to contaminate this virus nowadays, especially when we're living in such a globalized society and we get people coming in and out from the country everyday.
Mutation... everything is mutating... viruses, people's mind set, and everything else that was once pure and original... I don't know... Maybe that's how life is... time changes everything...
Anyway.... i better put on my mask too just in case... well, you'll never know... :P
