The N1H1 form is supposed to be signed by a doctor after chech-up and stamped by an adminisrator in the clinic. This is a serious issue that can neither be neglected nor taken lightly! If there is someone here who works in the health ministry or government, can you please bring this up because this is no way to follow-up on a serious issue like this! They say ignorance is bliss, but in the case of the swine flu , clinic employees' ignorance is a disaster!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My husband asks if anyone is really following up on every arrival from every flight from every country that has had a case of swine flu that comes into Kuwait. Like, within days, it must be in the thousands. Is even one person managing this data? We’re in France now.

Most of these people are out of the country and if we don't treat them well then they won't treat us or the country any better. It's like assuming the Indains who clean our streets to be all happy diddly when they're paid almost nothing and everyone treats them like shit, @ Mohammed

Heck if started treating these ex-pats better then maybe they'll take care of things better. Or should we get rid of them and get Kuwaitis back into those jobs?
