Yeah at least most unis/schools have broken up, less transference of disease possibly?

A school near me closed for a week, before exams. They said it was great they got an extra week of study leave (it was some year 7's that got it). They also got a 5% consideration marks.

I was surprised my college never got it. Being the biggest college in the borough - possibly the country? (I know it sends the most people in the uk to uni).

Quite a few colleagues where I work have got flu type symptoms. Trouble is, how do you know it is swine flu or just an ordinary cold?

Thats what Ive always wondered

I think if you have the flu symptoms you ring the doctor they come round and test you and tell you if its swine or normal flu..

Three people attending the Glastonbury Festival have been diagnosed with suspected swine flu. Two students and a 10-year-old child from a family of four showed symptoms of the illness when examined by festival medical staff.
The students, from Exeter and Edinburgh universities, and the family were moved off the festival site and into an isolation facility.
After receiving advice they have now all decided to return home.
Dr Mark Salter, one of the 600-strong medical team at the festival, said: "This is generally a mild illness but we are taking no chances and strongly advising people with symptoms to leave the festival.
"Because of the number of people it is highly likely that we will see other cases, but we are fully prepared."
