I could have swine flu as a lot of people in my class have it so its possible. I havent felt any of the symtoms but it has a incubation period of a week or so... and the first confirmed case at my school was 3 days ago.
My question is, should i continue to interact/feed/hold my reptiles? What should i do? Is it harmful for them? Sorry if this has alredy been posted i just wanted to make sure ** Ofcourse the reptiles will get fed and looked after, but by someone else if thats whats best** Last edited by Denis; 25-06-2009 at 04:25 PM..

Most viruses are species specific, which means they only effect one species.
Swine flue is a rare thing that crossed from pigs to humans. Humans and pigs are very close at a genetic level. But basicly your reptiles are safe as they are not closely related to pig or humans. The virus would have to evolve a hell of a lot to make that jump. Hope you don't have it, but if you do, your pets are safe
