Schweinegrippe

H1N1 is moving swiftly through Switzerland now.  Leif started getting sick on Saturday and we first suspected pneumonia.  After a long night of coughing and high fever we called our health center on Sunday and they sent a doctor to our apartment.  How nice it was to have someone come to us rather than having to drag a sick kid on the tram or bus to a hospital ER!  The test results came back positive yesterday afternoon, although by this point I was pretty sure that's what he had when Elisabet came home from school with a fever.  By the time I spoke with Leif's teacher in the afternoon, 15 (out of 21) children in his class were sick!  Now we just have to wait for it to make it's way through the family.....
