MyMilanGuide.Com(Italy) It is already confirmed that AC Milan midfielder Kaka will be moving to Spanish Mega Team Real Madrid in a record setting contract of £56M which is more than Zidane's 2001 record of £45.6M. Kaka will be leaving Ac Milan in good terms as reports reaching us indicate that the team cannot simply afford a higher pricey contract for the Brazilian. AC Milan is reportedly is having a acute cash shortfall and cannot afford its players for higher pay at this point of time. Despite increased attendance due to Beckham's temporary stint at AC Milan. But it is not enough to offset the cost in having the team. Decreasing attendance and the ongoing economic crisis had led to a decreased in sales and other income generating schemes.All AC Milan can do now is let Kaka go and hope that the likes of Pata and Co. will step in to fill the huge void Kaka will be leaving.

The number of cases of H1N1 in Milan is very sketchy at best. So far, the Italian Goverment is hell bent not to release official figures( on a regular basis) on the number of actual cases. Somehow, the virus is not big news here whether by accident or by design. Reports are scarce and some degree of "typical local arrogance" prevails. Somehow it is observed that some people here view themselves as "immune" to such cases, Why? MyMilanGuide.Com will just let you imagine why. Generally, it is safe to visit the city. There isn't much to worry about. Just practice common sense, like proper hygiene and avoid touching items most commonly used outside.Bring hand sanitisers to wipe yourself every now and then. The odds of you getting infected with the virus is equal with visiting any European City.

How do people become infected with influenza A(H1N1)?

Outbreaks in humans are now occurring from human-to-human transmission. When infected people cough or sneeze, infected droplets get on their hands, drop onto surfaces, or are dispersed into the air. Another person can breathe in contaminated air, or touch infected hands or surfaces, and be exposed. To prevent spread, people should cover their mouth and nose with a tissue when coughing, and wash their hands regularly.

What are the signs and symptoms of infection?

Early signs of influenza A(H1N1) are flu-like, including fever, cough, headache, muscle and joint pain, sore throat and runny nose, and sometimes vomiting or diarrhoea.

Regarding study of the first outbreak, have you received any feedback from the WHO team sent to Mexico to investigate the outbreak?

Teams are already sending epidemiological evidence but we will know more over the next few days.

Is there any confirmation of transmission between pigs and humans at this point?

No.

Is there any information on the economic impact of the outbreak so far?

No.

Why are we so worried about this pandemic possibility when thousands die every year from seasonal epidemics?

Seasonal epidemics occur every year and we are able to treat the virus with seasonal vaccines. A pandemic is a worldwide epidemic. It is a new virus and one to which the populations will have no immunity.
