Dr.Hersi:
Thanks  Dear Dr. Mahdi, for this information, me also  I heard some somalian people in kenya affected this disease, particularly in Somalia regions,  so how can we prevent it  to transmit to Somalia? I hope all health professionals  to participate their ideas for  discussion.   

Admin:
Dr.Hersi, thanks for your comment.

We can't tell if the disease already crossed the border but what we are capable of is to educate our readers about the symptoms & signs of the disease. (Our prevention is health education).
Because we don't have the swine flu prevention measures & even we can't control the outbreak if happens.
