Even though the number of reported cases of swine flu seem to have leveled out in Mexico, numbers are going up in the USA. Because of this, the US Government is asking schools to close that have had confirmed cases.
New guidance for schools were issued, asking schools to close for at least 14 days. This is because people that are sick can be contagious for seven to 10 days from when they get sick.
As of today, an estimated 350 schools across the USA have closed because of the swine flu outbreak.
