Having Fun Out of Swine Flu!

With the swine flu virus scare roaming around everywhere, especially in Mexico, the Mexicans are trying to make positive things out of a negative thing.

A mexican song about the influenza is out in title "Influenza Cumbia" which has inspired other swine flu related songs.


Influenza Cumbia!

A swine flu song..... people have lots of time to compose songs, I guess.

Mexicans are also decorating their masks with monkey face, pig's snort or kissy lips.

And, not forgetting about 'smart' businessmen who make money out of this whole pandemic scare - introducing the "Fashion Swine Flu Masks!" Sold at USD$ 10

A Japanese illustrator, Yoriko Yoshida, had also came up with the idea of "Stylish Surgical Masks", which come with matching names, cool ya!:

Mask of Beauty

Really patriotic masks, I should say - - for example, Mask of the Rising Sun....symbolises Japan.

As I am working in the hospital, it will be rather funny to appear in the hospital with one of the masks above - - say, the pig's snort mask. Haha.

Scare the wits out of people!
