Since the swine flu has become such a pandemic, people have been evacuating Mexico like they were going to be the next victim. Citizens from countries all around the school have fled from Mexico wearing protective face masks and, most possibly, aren’t going to go back until the swine flu is strictly under control.
Colleges that were holding educational programs in Mexico have quickly brought their students back. Dartmouth, the college that has done such, evacuated eleven undergraduates, a faculty member and a teaching assistant back to the United States soon after April 29, 2009. Not only that but celebrities, who were on vacation at the time, hurriedly fled back to their American, or other country homes. However, the swine flu is also in the US. There has only be one reported death, thus far, but the numbers are rapidly climbing.
When the death toll reached about 150 people, worried Australians, and many other foreigners, practically took the first flight out of Mexico. The Australians became exceptionally worried because the amount of deaths was just one step away from signaling the World Health Organizations’ (WHO) alert status. With the death toll climbing the WHO would authorize that the international borders of Mexico be shut down, making it so everyone inside the country was trapped. This is the exact reason as to why so many tourists are fleeing from Mexico.
However, even with the number of death, people should indeed remember that the swine flu is, most times, no more hazardous than the average seasonal flu.
