Dennis Hopper was rushed to a New York hospital Wednesday with "flu-like" symptoms, according to the Associated Press. A variety of reports said the 73-year-old actor, who was in town to publicize his TV series "Crash," was wearing an oxygen mask when he was whisked away. He also complained of stomach ailments.

USA TODAY posted the report on their "Swine Flu" page, linking to a Huliq post.

So does Dennis have swine flu? We certainly hope not.

But just so you know, if you have any two of the following symptoms -- accompanied by a fever over 100.4°F -- you may have swine flu:

unusual tiredness

headache

runny nose

sore throat

shortness of breath or cough

loss of appetite

aching muscles

diarrhea or vomiting

Get well soon, Dennis!
