Taking a Risk

The Swine flu epidemic has caused major attention all over the world, and has put a major stop on tourism in Mexico, which is a large money making income for the country of Mexico. Hotels and Resorts located on the coast of Mexico have reported free vacations for three years to any tourist catching the swine flu while on holiday in there hotel. Over millions of dollars lost, this counter is promoted to keep tourism alive in Mexico, but is it worth the risk?
"The 'flu-free guarantee' assures three years of free holidays to travellers who present flu symptoms eight days after returning from their trip," said Fernando Garcia, director of one of the participating hotel groups. Eight days after the trip is the problem of this special guarantee. Over 58 deaths reported in Mexico, the swine flu is known to be deadly and very hard to predict if a human is carrying this flu. Most people need to understand the problems behind this "special deal", a fun and enjoyable trip to Mexico can be priceless and remarkable but with what cost.
"Tourist destinations are safe in Mexico. People can return calmly. We are carrying out intensive checks," Cordova said. These offers and deals are not worth the lives of a human being, dissecting this situation, how can a person have three years of free vacating when they are infected with a deadly flu, that can positively and realistically kill that certain human being. Expected to cost Mexico's economy around $2.3 billion in loses over these hard time, Mexico needs to understand if they contain this problem, and stop the traveling of people in and out of the country, they can end this problem faster which will lead to the normal tourism rates of the country. The problem with promoting these offers can make the flu become a larger issue with more causalities and extend the problem of these country, which initially leads to more money lost for the country of Mexico . "The World Health Organization urged people to remain on alert Tuesday because the H1N1 virus could possibly mutate into a more virulent form and spark an influenza pandemic that could be expected to circle the globe up to three times", published by the Vancouver Sun.
