The UK has been put on red alert after the virus reached this country just days after it began killing people in Mexico.

The Government confirmed that 25 possible cases of swine flu had already been investigated.

Top medical advisers have warned that a pandemic would mean "many, many more people becoming ill than occur every winter with the normal seasonal flu".

To prevent the spread of illness, the Health Protection Agency advises people to cover their nose and mouth when coughing or sneezing, to throw away dirty tissues and to wash hands and surfaces regularly.

Britons are being urged to postpone any non-essential travel to the US or Mexico.
