Fever thermometer in use on a Malaysian bus passenger

A Malaysian health worker checks the temperature of a passenger in an effort to detect the presence of swine flu inside a bus in Kuala Lumpur.

The Malaysian government has launched an awareness campaign urging the public to remain vigilant against the swine flu and advising them to take 'H1N1 kits', including face masks and hand sanitizes, with them when visiting relatives during the coming festive season specially when travelling in public transport during the Islamic Eid-al-Fitr holidays.
