H1N1 and Pregnancy

October 3, 2009 · Leave a Comment


I knew the swine flu was serious but this morning on my to work I heard a new report from the cdc. I wanted to share the facts with you.


“The CDC is aware of about 700 cases of 2009 H1N1 in pregnant women since late April or early May,” Tom Skinner, a spokesman for the Centers for Disease and Control and Prevention told FOXNews.com. “There have been about 100 pregnant women admitted to intensive care units and there have been 28 pregnant women who have died from 2009 H1N1.”

Women’s immune systems are weaker when pregnant. The vacine is avaiable and next time you are at your doctors you can ask them about the risk and benifits of vacines. Also one of the best ways of protecting yourself and others is washing your hands and covering your month when you sneeze.

Obama’s Education Plan

September 30, 2009 · Leave a Comment

Obama says American kids spend too little time in school, putting them at a disadvantage with other students around the globe.

Obama and Duncan say kids in the United States need more school because kids in other nations have more school.

”Young people in other countries are going to school 25, 30 percent longer than our students here,” Duncan told the AP. ”I want to just level the playing field.”

While it is true that kids in many other countries have more school days, it’s not true they all spend more time in school.

Kids in the U.S. spend more hours in school (1,146 instructional hours per year) than do kids in the Asian countries that persistently outscore the U.S. on math and science tests — Singapore (903), Taiwan (1,050), Japan (1,005) and Hong Kong (1,013). That is despite the fact that Taiwan, Japan and Hong Kong have longer school years (190 to 201 days) than does the U.S. (180 days).
