Don’t Panic Be Aware

29th April, 2009 - Posted by LocalMommy -

All of us are paying attention to the news and following the swine flu pandemic. It is important to not panic and stay informed and aware. It is important to wash your hands and if you can’t use hand sanitizer with alcohol. They recommend not going to work or sending kids to school if  anyone is feeling unwell until you make sure what is going on. It is certainly better to be safe rather than sorry and during this type of health emergency it is understandable.  I think avoiding groups in closed in areas and covering your mouth when you sneeze and cough and avoid others who are sneezing and coughing is a good idea too. Use the hand sanitizers and wipe things you and your family touch alot with lysol wipes just to keep other germs down. It is important to talk to your children about this in a calm and informative way so they understand what needs to be done without being scared. Stay healthy.

Until Next Time,
