Swine flu
Whilst the UK sets up hotlines, stocks tamiflu and works around the clock to get an effective vaccine to counter swine flu, it seems that the Russians come from hardier stock.
Russian football fans have been told the best way to ward off the illness when they travel to Wales for next month's World Cup qualifier is to drink whisky:
"We urge our fans to drink a lot of Welsh whisky as a form of disinfection," VOB head Alexander Shprygin told Reuters.
"That should cure all symptoms of the disease."
Now why didn't we think of that?

They have a point; tamiflu can have some nasty side-effects. But then, so can whisky :-)
