Name Change For Swine Flu
By: Dairy Business Association

According to the U.S. Dept. of Homeland Security and USDA, the swine flu name is not accurate and is causing unnecessary problems and concerns. Homeland Security officials have announced that the virus name would be changed to the Influenza A (H1N1) virus.

USDA is also recommending the name change to eliminate public confusion about this illness and to more accurately characterize H1N1 as a human-to-human transmitted virus. So far, this new variant of H1N1 influenza has not been identified in any North American swine.
