People with regular exposure to pigs are at increased risk of Swine flu. Although the name ’swine flu’ is dreadful as such, it is to be noted that swine flu is just an influenza A H1N1 virus, just another type of flu virus. It has our typical seasonal flu symptoms.

This swine virus has components of pig and bird influenza viruses in it, so that humans do not have any immunity to it. Hence it is believed to be pandemic as it is highly contagious.

Symptoms of swine flu infections can include: very high fever, cough, running nose, aches, sore throat, extreme fatigue or tiredness, abnormal dehydration. If serious, there may be signs of pneumonia and respiratory failure.

Though there is no need to fear about children with a common cough or cold, it is always safe to have a swine flu test if the condition persists for a very long time. Having seen and heard about the death of the small girl Rida at Pune Hospital, it is advisable to have the test done at a public hospital or government-recommended hospitals and labs.

Rida’s family can fight and get a compensation for her death, but that poor girl will never come back to them. That loss can never be compensated!

ATMs, “Automatic Teller Machines”, are an easy, convenient way to access your account from almost anywhere. The instructions that are right there on the machine make ATMs more user-friendly even for a new user.

More people are now moving towards using the ATM for their banking needs. According to a 2006 survey by Banknet India, 95% people now prefer this modern channel to traditional mode of banking. Almost 60% people use an ATM at least once a week. As it can be used as a Debit Card as well, cash-carrying burden is greatly reduced among people. The ATM cards can be used overseas also. ATM cards have international validity and transactions can be done throughout the world and the service charges for this are quite reasonable.

Few things which we need to be careful about ATMs are: It is always advisable to be alone while using ATMs as the PIN Number needs to be more confidential. Else there is a chance of electronic hacking. Any theft of the card must be notified to the bank immediately. Please look the machine for familiarity before you insert the card, if it is unfamiliar it might be an ATM Scam. Please finish your transactions at the ATMs as quickly as possible for more safety and it not only saves our time but also of the people waiting…

Though the usage of ATMs is user friendly to the urban population, it is not of great help to the illiterate rural masses. So, ATMs are less popular over there. As a solution to this, ATMs with biometric devices are in the ongoing effort to offer banking services to the rural and illiterate masses.

Apparently, in spite of the very few delimitations, we should accept that this system has brought more comfort to human life if used safely!
