10 Seasonal Flu Suggestions

Fri, 11 Jan 2013 00:00:00 GMT

According to the Center for Disease Control (CDC) and World Health Organization, the flu season has recently taken an uptick over the recent holidays. Influenza (flu) activity for Texas has been reported as �widespread� according to the Texas Department of State Health Services.

The flu vaccine is still available and the CDC is urging anyone who has put off vaccination to get their flu shot. You should consult with your primary care physician if you have questions or concerns.

Signs of the flu include fever, cough, sore throat, stuffy and runny nose, body aches, headache, chills and fatigue. You might also have upset stomach, vomiting and diarrhea. A sick person can pass the virus to others starting one day before getting sick with symptoms and up to five to seven days after getting sick.

Seasonal flu tips:

1. Cover your nose and mouth with a tissue when you cough or sneeze and make sure you throw the tissue in the trash after you use it.

If you don't have a tissue, sneeze or cough into your elbow.
Wash your hands often with soap and water, especially after you cough or sneeze. If soap and water are not available, use an alcohol-based hand cleaner.
Avoid touching your eyes, nose and mouth to avoid spreading germs and bacteria.
Try to stay about six feet away from sick people, including those at home.

6. Routinely clean frequently touched objects and surfaces, including doorknobs, keyboards, desks, tables, counters, toys, and phones to help remove germs.

7. Make sure your work space has an adequate supply of tissues, soap, paper towels, alcohol-based hand cleaner and disposable wipes.

Visit your doctor if you have flu-like symptoms as quickly as possible to prevent becoming sicker and inadvertently spreading the virus.
Stay home if you have the flu for at least 24 hours after your fever is gone except to get medical care or for other necessities. Keep away from others as much as possible. This could prevent spreading the virus, including to co-workers.
Take precautions when caring for a sick person by wearing a face mask.
