WHAT TO DO IF YOU THINK YOU HAVE THE FLU

-

If you think you have the flu (whether H1N1 or other), there is medicine to treat it, but you need to start it within 48 hours of the onset of symptoms.  So come in ASAP to see a physician.

Even if you had the flu shot this year, you still may come down with the flu.

The Center for Disease Control is monitoring the types of flu to see how well the vaccine is covering the flu that is out there.  If you would like to read their weekly statement, connect to the link http://www.cdc.gov/flu/weekly/.  You may also link to http://www.flu.gov to read more about influenza.
