Unfortunately my first blog post will be about swine flu .

It’s really a threat to the existence of humanity nowadays ..lot’s are infected and others died …the situation is going bad and bad .

Although the name ’swine flu’ brings up a lot of extra fear and worry, it is important to note that swine flu is just an influenza A H1N1 virus.

So it’s our job now to stop the rapid spread if this curse.

Swine flu is a Type A influenza virus which causes regular outbreaks of flu between humans.

Symptoms of Swine Flu

The symptoms of swine flu are usually like those of regular seasonal flu and include:

  • headache
  • chills

  • fever
  • loss of appetite
  • aches
  • fatigue
  • runny nose
  • sneezing
  • watery eyes
  • throat irritation
  • nausea and vomiting
  • diarrhea
  • in people with chronic conditions, pneumonia may develop

Precautions Against Swine Flu

Good standard flu prevention techniques are recommended to protect yourself against swine flu:

  • Stay home whenever possible. Ask your support team to get groceries, walk your dog, bring work home from the office, or whatever else you can delegate.
  • If you develop a fever of 100.5F or higher, call your doctor right away (day or night) and start drinking plenty of fluids. Stay well hydrated and get a diagnosis and treatment for whatever is causing your fever.
  • If you cough or sneeze, cover your nose and mouth with a tissue and then toss it out. No tissues handy? Turn your face into the crook of your elbow, to keep germs from flying away.
  • Wash your hands often with soap and water or alcohol sanitizer – this will kill most germs.
  • Avoid people who have a fever, cough, or sneezing, or complain of any flu-like symptoms
  • If you feel like you are developing flu symptoms, don’t wait to see if it will just go away. Call your doctor or nurse practitioner and ask for advice or an appointment.
  • i hope that ppl take tha matter seriously and begin to excute these preventions :) .

    wishing for u the best of the best .
