Influenza A(H1N1)

The Influenza A(H1N1) is in fact very deadly! I dare say there’s not a single person in this world is NOT even a lil afraid of this virus. Heck, I’m scared of this virus too! Well, but i’m not like you know, horrified by this, cause currently i have not been showing ANY symptoms of it *Touchwood*

A number of schools in Malaysia have been closed to refrain this virus from spreading wildly. This virus, in fact, does spread easily and quickly! That is why it’s so deadly. Up to today in Malaysia, the virus took down 44 person. Here are some preventive measures that you can use to prevent it :

• Cover your nose and mouth with a tissue when you cough or sneeze. Throw the tissue in the trash after you use it.
• Wash your hands often with soap and water, especially after you cough or sneeze. Alcohol-based hand cleaners are also effective.
• Avoid touching your eyes, nose or mouth. Germs spread this way.
• Try to avoid close contact with sick people.
• Stay home if you are sick for 7 days after your symptoms begin or until you have been symptom-free for 24 hours, whichever is longer. This is to keep from infecting others and spreading the virus further.
• Wear a mask covering your mouth.
• Consult a doctor once you have a symptom of it.

This does not guarantees somebody from immunity to this virus but it sure does cut down the percentage of you getting the virus. So, people, please do take care of yourself
