U.S. President Barack Obama has declared the fast-spreading A/H1N1 flu a "national emergency," the White House said on Saturday.
The White House said in a statement that the president signed a proclamation Friday night to make the declaration, saying it makes it easier for healthcare providers to "handle a surge in H1N1 patients."
In spite of the rain, people are waiting in lines to get A/HIN1 vaccines in Chicago, America.
