Hundreds of Students at Queens School Come Down with Flu
April 24, 2009
QUEENS, N.Y. (WPIX) - “The Health Department is monitoring an outbreak of flu at St. Francis Prep in Fresh Meadows, Queens, to see if the students may have come down with the swine flu virus. As many as 500 students have reported they were suffering from flu-like symptoms. Some of the students told WPIX they recently visited Mexico. The flu outbreak forced school officials to cancel an event called “International Night,” which was scheduled for Friday night. A thousand people had been expecting to attend.”

You're right!

I was dubious at 75 and could have been talked out of it, but 500 out of 2700 (per the first couple of google results for “St. Francis Preparatory School”) in three days is straight out of a science fiction movie. Without rancor, I’m gonna stick with my own harmless opinion that it’s not swine flu and not even “regular” flu.

St. Francis Prep, though quite large, is just a plain, ordinary Catholic High school, like many others in NYC. It’s not one of those fancy boarding type schools.

Much obliged. I really did have a mental picture of a 90210-type place.
I read something on WABC that said tests are already coming back negative for swine flu, and they should have all the results on Saturday.

For my parents and those of many friends, the Catholic high schools in NYC were a way of getting their kids a decent education. Though there were some fine public high schools in the city at that time (late 50’s), the big difference was DISCIPLINE!!!
