Title: "Ground Zero" Origin of Swine Flu?

A friend sent me this picture, taken several years ago, of his grandson. Could this have been the origin of the swine flu?

What?! There's been no proof that it can be transmitted from human to swine! What heresy! rant.gif This is how rumors get started!

Afraid I must disagree with ABD about the 'reverse transmission' of the flu. getsick.gif
This article in the 5/03/09 edition of the "Minneapolis Star Tribune" points to a case in Canada of the flu being passed to swine from a human.

I read it on the internet.... so it must be true....
