Afghanistan’s only Pig Quarantined in Flu Fear

Posted by mfluch on May 8, 2009

Afghanistan’s only known pig has been locked in a room, away from visitors to Kabul zoo where it normally grazes beside deer and goats, because people are worried it could infect them with the virus popularly known as swine flu.

The full story can be found here at Reuters (funny enough it is filed under the category “lifestyle“). Felix says on his blog that this somehow reminds him of the following joke:

They closed the Kansas public library after someone stole the book.
