Aaaaacchhhhoooo!... this was one of my usual sneeze from a regular Cold that i catch periodically. But this wasnt the same for the others sharing my personal space with bodies touching almost end to end in a packed local train to college. They gave me a very victimising look as if i have killed someone. Cummon it was just a sneeze not even a dreaded fart after eating vadapav garnished with Garlic chutney! Well as the wisemen say, times change it all. This very innocent Sneeze has been looked upon like a criminal in a country where people dont mind eating crap near the gutters on the road with loads of sweat and and couple of drops of Nose droplets. They can tolerate all the spits on the local train, showers of sweat sprinkled by fellow passengers and even drink water coming straight out of a municipal tap. They are not bothered about Malaria, TB etc etc. But their hands are quick enough to take out the even dirtier handkerchieves and useless masks to protect them selves from the so called Life threatening Swine Flu! Even i felt out of place when i dint use my handkerchief and started using it. But then hello i am educated not for no reason..checked couple of sites and read it on newspaper and got the facts right. The hanky is in the right place now..well for the cold..yeah its slowly giving up. I hope Mumbaikars become aware or else i am not sure about the Flu but yeah the panic will surely kill them. Lastly I would like to share an SMS that was sent to me by a college buddy...
"900 ppl affected by Swine Flu and everyone wears a mask
20 Million have AIDS and still no one ready to wear a condom!"
Wake up India!
