First confirmed A(H1N1) in Malaysia

Just a moment ago, Malaysiakini.com and Mysinchew.com published the news on their website. The Health Ministry today confirmed that the first A(H1N1) case in Malaysia. The victim is a 21 year old US student returning to Malaysia on Wednesday (13 May). He is currently undergoing treatment at Sungai Buloh Hospital.

My heart goes out to his family and friends. Hope that he is strong and will recover soon. As the saying goes, “life is short, you never know what will happen next”.

    Yes, we will survive. I read that there are more deaths from common flu every year than the H1N1. Yet, people are not really afraid of the common flu.

    Sometimes I think what’s happening these days is also nature’s way of population control.
