Flu Prevention Tips
Our strategy to help prevent the spread of flu is available online. In general:
- Cover your nose or mouth with a tissue when you cough or sneeze. Throw the tissue in the trash after you use it.
- If you do not have a tissue cough or sneeze into your sleeve.
- Wash your hands often with soap and water, especially after you cough or sneeze. Alcohol-based hands cleaners are also effective.
- Avoid touching your eyes, nose or mouth. Germs are spread that way.
- Stay home if you are sick.
- Contact your doctor if you have fever and flu symptoms.
- For more information about H1N1 (swine) flu virus, please visit www.volusiahealth.com or www.cdc.gov
