*Influenza H1N1 Information*
PREVENTION
Here are some ways that you can protect yourself:
If you notice symptoms, stay home from work or school, avoid contact with people as much as possible, and CALL the Student Health Service or your medical provider for advice. Your health provider will determine if influenza testing or treatment is needed. Once confirmed, the Centers for Disease Control reports that the Influenza H1N1 virus is treatable with prescription antiviral drugs.
Please visit the Center for Disease Control and Prevention website for more complete information and facts at: http://www.cdc.gov/h1n1flu/guidance/guidelines_colleges.htm
