Businesses Concerned About the Cost of H1N1

VICTORIA - With news from economists that H1N1 could exceed the $2-billion dollar price tag of the 2003 SARS outbreak, businesses in Victoria are concerned about how H1N1 will impact their bottom lines. The owner of Mango's Boutique in Victoria says if just one of her employees is sick, she will lose 25 per cent of the business' workforce. The sectors that will most likely be the hardest hit are tourism, the food industry and retail in malls.
