Swine Flu Facts

 

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has established a
Web site (www.flu.gov) as the one-stop source for almost anything you can think of regarding the H1N1 influenza virus (swine flu).

The Web site has news updates daily, and sometimes hourly, that can help you or your community better protect yourself and respond to a flu pandemic.

Included are answers to dozens of common and not-socommon
questions; facts and figures; reported cases and deaths; state-by-state information; action steps to prevent the spread of the virus in schools, workplaces, and households; and much more.

Flu fact:

Those most vulnerable to H1N1 are younger people, pregnant women, health care personnel, and people who have underlying health conditions.
