Many A/HIN1 flu cases are  reported recently and some schools are closed as a result. I’m so worried about  you. Are you alright? Are there any A/H1N1 flu cases in your school? Do you  still have to go to school everyday?

To stay away from the  disease, you’d better stay at home as much as possible and not go to places  where there are many people. Wash your hands more often to keep them clean;  Open the window to have more fresh air in the room; And eat more fruit and  vegetable to keep yourself fit and strong.

So far the disease is not so  deadly as it seems to be. Do be at ease! Take care and you’ll be OK.

Yours  truly,

Li  Hua
