H1N1 FLU

Is it a Bird? Is it Zoro??? (minus his sword?) No it is just Kor Kor preparing himself before he meets up with Linny...

Now he is talking to Linny.....

Still hanging on to his thick towel...A mask is not good enough....
And he is a only a Singapore PR not even a Singaporean yet.....and soooooo "KIASU"
The story below.....

Flu pandemic alert is raised to phase 6...which means according to WHO is a pandemic. ..Which also means that WHO has put the world on the highest alert for the disease. Most people recover from the H1N1 FLU infection without the need for hospitalization or medical care. WHO is concerned about current patterns of serious cases and deaths that are occurring primarily among young persons, and those with pre-existing medical conditions or pregnancy (S'pore 's Radio kept on reminding us on this issue daily every hour!!!) WHO is not recommending travel restrictions yet . The main route of transmission seems to be similar to seasonal influenza, via droplets that are expelled by speaking, sneezing or coughing..You can prevent getting infected by avoiding close contact people who who influenza-like symptoms. And Malaysia is prepared for it...Our health Minister Datuk Seri Liow said the health authorities were geared up to face the threat, with heightened health measures already in place. Especialy so when he has Malaysians like our Dadda who co-operates with the "truest sense of the word" So when Linny returned from Melbourne yesterday for a very very very (will really be short after her 5 day quarantine)
short holiday...she was picked up by Azlan our driver...(Azlan who was informed to keep his distance and wear a mask the minute he meets up with Linny) then as he nears the house he gotta ring the maids who had to lock up the dogs (poor Ferbie and Muachi) then Linny is to stay on the third floor for 5 days......no nonsence...Dadda's orders...Quote from our health Minister.. "Although the fatality rate is just one per cent, we cannot take things for granted. Who knows how deadly the next wave of this virus will be?" Unquote.... Cos Melbourne HAS become the H1N1, flu capital of the world, according to a report, as the contry's confirmed tally of the disease soared.....and Linny is flying in from there, so Dadda is not taking any risks!!!!!
Dadda "visiting" Linny...on the third floor...
She seems cheerful and not minding a bit...She must thinking this is very funny.... In Melbourne you can cough your lungs out and no body bothers!!!!
Wait a few more days of this confinement she'll hit the roof...
Anyway Dadda is happy that all his instructions are being carried out.....
Danny boy is more obedient....HE uses his shirt to cover his important parts...whilst talking to Linny
Then the maid complains....Gotta to send tea and dinner up to third floor..."berapa lama macham ini???"
Linny's ice Milo and Cheese cake left by her door
While we had our tea in the garden...
Then she gotta to put the empty cups and dishes out for the maid to collect....
Yati came with disposable gloves and all to collect her dishes..for "rendam dengan ayer panas panas panas se-belum cuci"

Now to the back of the house...not to the kitchen
Linny gotta put up notices like this at the glass window to notify the maids (and visitors) so that she can have some 'peace'
Masks were put beside her door just in case there are "visitors" who wants to use them
Photo taken thru the glass window ...The next morning after a bath...she seems fresh and happy...(must be wondering what's all the fuss about...Melbourne doesn't care a hoot)
Another notice...the maid came running to mumise (Yati doen't read and write)..."tak tahu apa Celine tulis"
According to Linny at the airport nurses were placed at entry points to screen incoming visitors
Quote from the Minister..." Now we are screening people at all entry ponts and airports. If it get worse, we will ...............blah blah blah" " We will take drastic measures if we have to in order to keep it from spreading"
It also has been confirmed that quite a few people (mostly students returning home from Melbourne for holiday) were admitted to the Sungai Buloh Hospital) with H1N1 INFECTION.
See Dadda does not "PLAY PLAY"
