A (H1N1) ~ All for H1N1 or H1N1 for All??



Yes, the topic is about the none other than the famous uninvited visitor, the H1N1. So, what is this H1N1 all about?? So far, it’s the latest problem for humankind in history. Yup, that was after all other problems we’ve been facing throughout history. There’s once when we worried about Terrorists, then Climate Change, then Dengue, then the Haze, then the Melamine case…… and now H1N1 , it keeps on going….
But I don’t think none of those problems listed above are solved 100%. Poor human beings…. Having to face the problems one after another…..But what are we doing actually?? Do we know that it is a problem in the first place?? So far, humans only know how to blame each other. I guess that part of our mentality doesn’t evolve yet. Pointing fingers at each other, but the problem is still there. Where are we leading ourselves too??

Anyway, let’s get straight to the point here which is H1N1. As I have said, the only thing we know is the BLAME Game. So this H1N1 case, who to blame? Let me see……… The older generations will blame the government for not being strict to control the spread. Parents will do whatever it takes to prevent their healthy children from going out to the public and at the same time blaming the government for not closing and banning public gatherings. And for the children, well, most probably the younger generations, will start complaining about why people make so much noise about this H1N1 when they claimed that the number of death in car crash is more compared to H1N1. I mean, this young people have a point. They want to explore this beautiful world before they start to be busy with their work. They want to meet friends and have fun because this is the only time they have for now. At the same time, older generations are complaining about these students for being the cause of the spread. So, who is to be blamed now? Is it the healthy ones that need to be blamed totally for spreading this virus?! Is it fair ??

Well, in my opinion, the first one that needs to be blame is the one HAVING THE SICKNESS. If these people don’t go out and rest at home, they won’t be any spread. Of course, if you are infected, you may think that why you should care of others if they’re infected because you are already infected isn’t it?? Then, it is the job for the healthy ones to stop those who are infected from making things worse. Why blame the healthy ones for exposing themselves in public when those who are infected are the ones who are making the problems.
Let me give you an analogy. Let say we are warned that there are terrorists somewhere in the city. Carrying a weapon that can kill hundreds in just seconds. Of course, people are scared. But who are the ones that need to be ‘eliminated’ or blamed?? The public or that ONE terrorist? Are you going to inform everyone not to go out to public places because the terrorist could be anywhere?? Or are you going to make sure that the terrorist is caught and put somewhere safe??

You see, you can’t stop people from going out. Life has to go on. We only Stop ONE person that will cause problems to ONE Hundred people. The Infected are like ‘terrorists’. They come in small numbers but they are here in public. Their Sneeze can ‘shoot’ hundreds and billions of viruses that can infect hundreds of people. And it all comes from ONE nose. Just like a terrorist. Hundreds will die if hundreds of bullets are being shot from ONE Weapon. So, who needs to be stopped now??


Be serious people. It is not the end of the world yet. If you don’t want the world to be infected by diseases like H1N1, Please do whatever it takes to ‘eliminate’ those who are infected. Whether they are your friends or family, prevent them from going out and cause more problems. The healthy ones deserve to enjoy the beauty of this world. If you see anyone coughing or sneezing in public, it is not you that should run away. It is them that should be away. You should stand on your grounds. If you know them, ask them politely to go somewhere else.

Before I end this, I would like to say sorry if I have to relate the infected with terrorist. I am not saying that they are bad people. What I am trying to say is that ONE person can cause problems to ALL. Please feel responsible and quarantine yourself.
I love this world and I love this country. I know you all do too. But please don’t take for granted of certain things that may destroy everything. So is this an ‘All for One or One for All’ situation? All going to stop One infected person or One infected person is going to spread to ALL?? You decide……
