Today Gordon Brown has confirmed that more cases of Swine Flu have been confirmed in the UK and now include a 12 year old girl. The girls school has been closed and other students have been offered antiviral drugs in an attempt to slow the spread down.
There are three new cases in total and the Prime Minister has assured the public that the UK is well prepared for any pandemics should they happen. He went on to say that “We have decided to build up stocks of anti-viral drugs and we are ordering a great deal more face masks (for health staff) and we’ll be sending out public information to all citizens of the country.
“By Tuesday next week there’ll be an information leaflet available for every family.
“The World Health Organisation says we are one of the best prepared countries, we intend to keep it that way and do everything in our power to make sure people are safe from this worldwide problem.”
