Actually i'm pretty annoyed by this whole swine flu craze. I can understand why some people have to be careful for medical reasons eg. weak immune system, pregnancy etc., but some people are too worked up about it. The hand sanitizers smell quite nice, but be careful with the school ones because they can be dangerous because of the ingredients including a huge amount of alcohol. If it kills bacteria so easily, think what it might do to you.

     Obviously i don't want to scare you, but just be careful because these liquids aren't harmless. As for the nice lavender/cucumber flavoured ones, i'm ok with those. The only problem with them is that they are anti-bacterial, not anti-viral, so i'm pretty sure they won't kill swine flu.

     I don't think our school will be affected anyway. But if it is, there's no need to panic. They will send the person home to get better for a while, and they probably won't close the school unless there is a huge outbreak, (or especially if it is a boarding school).

    Anyway, the only people hugely affected are those already with medical problems or in poorer countries such as Mexico where there is a bad health service.

All in all, i'm not too bothered by the pandemic they call "the worst cold ever". As long as i wash my hands (with water!) i should be fine.

   And just to make sure, i do feel sorry for those who have died as a result, but i think the chances of us personally being affected are very slim.

Izzyy, if u wash your hands with just water it will not clean them. in fact, i think the moisture makes a nice inviroment for the germs... and whats wronge with alcahol part?    Pet Tulant xx

lol i meant soap and water

arent u in france?

How is using hand sanitizer dangerous? Surely if it's meant to help us, it's safe right? Then again I don't really care, this whole swine flu thing is starting to annoy me. They need to bring the damn vaccination out now before anymore people die.

Just die yourself swine flu! lol

its been said that the alcahol can kill the swine flu virus  woop!
