Hog+Farmers

How have hog farmers affected by the recent swine flu outbreak?

Think about the following questions:

Does the swine flu actually harm the health of the hogs? Are the hogs still safe for consumers to eat? How does the population's fear about the swine flu affect the sales and profits made by hog farmers? How might close interaction with pigs threaten the health of a hog farmer?

If you are playing the role of the hog farmer, you should explain to the viewers what the truth is about eating pork products during the swine flu outbreak! Remember, whether consumers continue to eat pork could determine whether or not you are able to keep your job as a farmer!
