1 The 2009 swine flu outbreak (pandemic) was due to infection with the H1N1 virus and was first observed in Mexico. 2  Symptoms of swine flu in humans are similar to most influenza infections: fever (100 F or greater), cough, nasal secretions, fatigue, and headache.
Intellectual disability is a disability characterized by limitations in intellectual functioning and resulting in the need for extraordinary supports for the person to participate in activities involved with typical human functioning (Wehmeyer, Buntinx, Lachapelle, Luckasson, Schalock, Verdugo, , 2008).
Definitions. Cognitive deficit is an inclusive term that is most often used to describe deficits in intellectual functioning in global disorders (eg, mental retardation). Less often, it is used to describe specific deficits in cognitive abilities (eg, certain learning disabilities such as dyslexia). In contrast, terms such as learning disability are used to describe specific deficits in processes that may have little to do with overall cognitive functioning.
