            This is serious and it is spreading very quickly. Lots of people in my school wear air-filtered masks! People skip school and I did too. Just make sure to be safe and careful, and immediately tell someone if you have any sort of symptoms. It will be ok everyone just don't panic and be cautious.

                okay so I admit that people sitting in the comforts of their home in the USA have a higher chance of contacting the Flu but its not the same for people in China like me

                  Why is the Chinese government trying to hide a disease? It could make the whole WORLD in danger.
