9 cases of H1N1 virus were confirmed in the Jordanian Kingdom. Jordan discovered and announced the first case of infection on Monday, and the number quickly increased to Nine within the relatively short time of two days. Five of the detected cases were on the same flight coming to Jordan from the United States of America. Patients are now receiving medical care in one of the governmental Jordanian hospitals.

The National Committee for the Prevention of Epidemics has been studying options of vaccinations against the virus in case of an outbreak of the flu, while an official announced that 80% of Jordanians will receive the vaccination once it is available in October, all of which seeming as a bit too exaggerated for what is, by the end of the day, a normal flu, which simply needs to be properly diagnosed and treated.

I mean, do we really want to increase the risk of further unknown diseases (i.e.: Autism), which are, still suspected to be due to all the vaccinations that are introduced to children. Do we really want to do that to prevent one flu that could actually be treated like any other flu if enough care is presented? I do understand that this one could cause death if not treated properly, but can’t we find another way of dealing with it instead of just vaccinating everyone?!!! I am sure that if we think harder, we could come up with another solution that is just as beneficial in regards to the flue, yet presents no further health risks.
