FLU INFO: PREVENTION AND CARE

The Weber-Morgan Health Department is working in partnership with medical providers, laboratories and pharmacies to monitor the number of novel H1N1 influenza cases in our area. But we need the public's help to curtail the oubreak in our community.

Stop the spread:

• Cover your coughs and sneezes.

• Wash  your hands with soap and water frequently.
• Stay home if you are sick.
• Contact your physician if you have a temperature of more than 101 degrees and other flu like symptoms, have had contact with someone who is ill or have traveled to an area with active novel H1N1 cases.

There is no evidence this illness is linked to eating pork. It can be transmitted by coming into contract with sick animals and/or people. Antivirals may be effective for treating the symptoms of influenza and may be obtained from your physician.
