Swine Flu\
Unless you ve been living under a rock for the past few months, you ve no doubt
heard about the Swine Flu .
As this name suggests, this disease is believed to have
originated from pigs in Mexico.
However, the proper name for Swine Flu is actually H1N1A.
Some symptoms of H1N1A are: high fever, cough, headache, muscle and joint pain, runny
nose, sore throat, and sometimes vomiting and diarrhea.
To protect yourself from catching
this disease, you should avoid touching your mouth and nose excessively.
Clean your
hands thoroughly with soap and water, or cleanse them with an alcohol-based hand solution
on a regular basis.
Avoid close contact with people who might be ill, and reduce the time you
spend in crowded settings, if possible.
Additionally, it is helpful to improve the airflow in your
living space by opening windows.
Finally, practice good health habits, such as getting
adequate sleep, eating nutritious foods, and keeping physically active.
