豚インフルエンザ - Otherwise known as Swine Flu
This is a subject of which by now I'm sure needs no introduction. Searches for Swine Flu have shot past the 5000% mark, and will probably continue to rise as news of this disease develops. According to National Public Radio, the spread of infectious diseases have generally three categorized stages of spread outside of normal parameters - outbreak, epidemic, and pandemic. Swine flu certainly has pandemic potential (widespread global infection), but is currently only in an outbreak stage, which means it's rate of growth has shot past normal expectations for a given area.
