My family is thinking of traveling to Cancun, Mexico, in November 2009. Will the danger of swine flu be gone by that time or shoud we be cautious?

Alexander, We cannot predict what the ‘swine flu’, now known as the H1N1 virus, situation will be this fall. By then, you and your family may have already received a H1N1 vaccine. Presently, there are no restrictions on travel to Mexico and you should make your travel plans accordingly. Of course, you should consult with a travel doctor in advance to make sure all of your immunizations are up-to-date and for valuable travel safety tips. Many Mexican hotels are offering deep discounts to encourage travelers to choose our southern neighbor for their next vacation. Bon voyage!

The World Health Organization (WHO) announced on December 1, 2009, that 12 million people will receive the Yellow Fever vaccination in West African countries. This is a breakthrough, the medical world could not have done, if it was not for the work organizations, yourself conducted. Here, at Disease.com (a non profit, website) would like to aid in spreading awareness for Yellow Fever. In the past, Disease.com (a website dedicated to the prevention and treatment of diseases) has worked with several elite non profit organizations with great success. If you could, please list us as a resource or host our social book mark button, it would be much appreciated. Lets abolish Yellow Fever, for good.If you want more information on that please email me back with the subject line as your URL.
