While waiting for my flight at the Pudong Airport in Shanghai, I found myself mesmerized by the cartoon playing on one of the tvs at the departure gate.
At first, I wasn't paying attention, but the catching little jingle eventually grabbed my attention. I thought it was a kid's show, but it turned out to be a public safety message about Swine Flu, sung by a cartoon pig. Although the message on hygiene was made clear, the pig boy made it especially clear that pigs alone were not to blame, instead you should blame the Americans.
What a shame!
At this time, I can't figure out how to get the video off my new Blackberry, but luckily, someone else was similarly entranced by the song and kind enough to post it on YouTube.
I've transcribed the subtitles for you, so it's easier to read.
Swine Influenza comes from America
Spreads around the world
It’s true name is (A(H1N1)
What a shame!
Someone say it due to pigs
Actually, not all is my mistake
The virus comes from pig, bird, and Man
Mixed!
The variety virus is a little strong
It can be alive several hours
Breathing, contact, and kissing
It’s Infective!
Fever, cough, and flowing nasal mucus
Don’t ignore the common symptoms
The virus all have a Incubation period
Take Care!
Because at present we lack the vaccine
We should prevent it ahead of time
Listen to me everybody, I’ll give you a
Instruction!
Wash your hands and take exercise frequently
Make a good habit in personal hygiene
Drink more water and have enough sleep
Very Good!
If there were patients in the place where you live
Don’t have a no purpose stroll outside
Don’t drill the crowd to join in the fun
Dangerous!
Pay attention to the diet at home
The diet must be nutritive and comprehensive
The meal must certainly be boiled
Safely!
Open the windows
Keep the air have a circulation
Decrease the possibility of catching the cold
Comfortable!
Have a good mood is also important
No stress, no bother
Balance the body and mind
No illness!
If you have a cough or sneezing
Estop your mouse and nose with paper
Throw the paper in the garbage can
Social Morality!
If we have a good prevention
The flu can’t seize you
Don’t be infected by the virus
Well done!
Although the epidemic situation is nervous
We should have a good mood
Learn more knowledge and make enough prevention
Healthy!
