Great article about current flu issue - one idea you may consider if you live in a high population area is to visit our beachfront community consisting of 60,000 people. Our border is safe, food is great and we have the absolute best weather.
MEXICO CITY (Reuters) - Mexico started to get a better picture of its outbreak of a dangerous new flu strain on Friday, widening testing as a conveniently timed long holiday gave people a chance to ride out the epidemic at home.
Health Minister Jose Angel Cordova said the public hospitals that treat roughly half the country admitted 46 patients with severe flu symptoms on Thursday, down from 212 patients on April 20.
"This is encouraging," Cordova told a news conference late on Thursday.
The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention sent materials for a quick diagnostic test to Mexico so scientists there can quickly screen people for the new flu. The CDC's Dr. Richard Besser said test kits were also en route to health departments in all U.S. states to speed up surveillance.
Cordova said tests from samples sent to laboratories in the United States, Canada and Mexico have only confirmed 12 out of 176 deaths blamed on the H1N1 swine flu virus. "The number of confirmed fatalities will probably rise," he said.
He said that of 679 patient samples checked by the labs, 312 samples have tested positive for H1N1 swine flu, and 300 of those cases are patients who have survived, some after treatment with antiviral drugs .
Normal seasonal flu kills between 250,000 and 500,000 people around the globe in an average year, including about 36,000 in the United States.
Worldwide, 11 countries have reported confirmed cases of the H1N1 strain, with the Netherlands the latest to join the list and 17 more countries were checking possible cases.
MILD INFECTIONS New confirmed cases were also reported in Canada, the United States and Europe . Almost all infections outside of Mexico have been mild and only a handful of patients have required hospital treatment, with one U.S. death.
The World Health Organization said it would remain for now at its current alert level -- one step below full pandemic -- and that it would no longer refer to the H1N1 virus as "swine flu" to appease outraged meat producers. WHO did not offer another name, however, to distinguish the new virus from other circulating H1N1 viruses.
U.S. Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius said the United States would spend $251 million to buy 13 million more courses of flu medicine. The United States began sending 400,000 doses of treatment to Mexico.
The U.S. government has stockpiled about 50 million courses of antiviral drugs and state stockpiles across the country include an additional 23 million courses. Both Roche AG's Tamiflu, known generically as oseltamivir, and GlaxoSmithKline's Relenza, known generically as zanamivir, work against the new virus.
Mexican President Felipe Calderon asked Mexicans to stay home over the long Cinco de Mayo holiday beginning on Friday and urged businesses to close.
"There is no safer place than your own home to avoid being infected with the flu virus," Calderon said.
DRIVING SALES U.S. retailers, however, counted on the outbreak to drive people to stores that have been abandoned in the global economic downturn .
"Sales are brisk for items such as hand sanitizers, anti-bacterial soap and protective masks and gloves," CVS Caremark Corp spokesman Mike DeAngelis said.
CVS said it was also seeing increased demand for the Tamiflu "particularly in markets where there are confirmed cases of H1N1 flu virus."
The Rite Aid Corp said Tamiflu and Relenza are available in about 98 percent of its nearly 4,900 stores, up from about 84 percent and said it was working with suppliers to keep replenishing its stock of face masks and hand sanitizers.
Similar increases in demand are being seen in Canada, according to spokesmen for Shoppers Drug Martchain and Wal-Mart Canada .
Mexico's peso was hammered on Thursday and its stock market slid. But most global markets were taking the flu news in stride as traders focused on hopes that a deep U.S. recession may be nearing its end.
"The information that we have at this stage is it is a relatively minor (economic) event," International Monetary Fund chief economist Olivier Blanchard said, although he warned that some countries and sectors could see fallout from the outbreak.
The WHO and flu experts say they do not yet know enough about the new strain to say how deadly it is, how far it might spread and how long any potential pandemic may last.
But the first detailed analysis, published in the journal Eurosurveillance, showed it was a mixture related to two known swine viruses, one itself a triple mixture of bird, human and swine viruses.
"The closest relatives to the virus we have found are swine viruses," said Paul Rabadan of New York's Columbia University .

Within Rocky Point Puerto Penasco we have so much to see a weekend never seems to be enough. In the old port ( also known as the Malecon ) we have our fish market bringing you the catch of the day as well as shops, restaurants and bars. The perfect location for a daily stroll.

With amazing condo projects like Puerta Privada ( the only non rental project in Puerto Penasco ) Las Palomas, Sonoran Sky, Casa Blanca, Esmeralda and the popular Bella Serina - Sandy Beach has become one of the most popular location for those wanting the vacation without the hassle. At the end of Sandy Beach we have the Cholla Bay are which has more history than we have time to tell and a charm that can not be matched. On the other side of Rocky Point there is a great up and coming area called Playa Mirador. Playa Mirador has yet to be fully developed which will bring something new and exciting to Penasco. The area will have projects from residential to condos and commercial as well. Outside of Playa Mirador we have the popular Las Conchas which has remained one of the best spots in Rocky Point due to its beautiful beaches and close proximity to town. A short distance from town we have some absolutely amazing opportunities in areas like Playa La Jolla, Playa Encanto and the well known Mayan Palace.
With a market greatly influenced by the U.S. and the general slowed times of December and January we are excited to see a great deal of success. Helping a number of clients find their piece of heaven with purchases in Esmeralda, Las Palmas and Puerta Privada as well as Sonoran Sun we believe more than ever that now is the time to be looking at Rocky Point / Puerto penasco for your weekend getaways.
