Grave concern here is, we have an open border with India and there is a unaccounted number of inter-border passage. In the situation where we do not have enough health scanning facility at the international airport, it is definitely going to create a havoc once the H1N1 guest appear near the borders.
All I can say now is, while we have time, lets educate ourselves and everyone we care for regarding the H1N1  because it might not take much long to get that crazy virus floating here in our air.
