The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention have made it official, the Swine Flu is officially a concern. According to the World Health Organization we are at a phase 5 worldwide pandemic alert.
There is no question that the swine flu is contagious. It is another instance of a type A H1N1 virus, which means that it spreads through those airborne droplets of water that are released when we cough or sneeze.
If you are thinking that the best course of action is to change your diet and avoid eating pork products, lets clear up that point. You cannot contract swine flu from pork meat, but remember with any meats to cook at appropriate heats to the recommended temperature. Restrict your contact with live pigs, though, for you can contract this illness from a live pig.
What is the best way to avoid contracting swine flu? Great question! Proper hygiene is always a good course of action. Wash your hands often, toss those used tissues, and cover when you sneeze or cough. If you are a caretaker of someone with the flu you may want to use a basic mask as a precaution. But lets get realistic. Airborne viruses are tough to beat.
You might want to contact your doctor if you have these symptoms: unusual fatigue, headache, a runny nose, aching body, coughing, and a high fever. Treatment is the same as for any other flu outbreak.
As far as a vaccine goes, it does take at least six months to research and develop a new vaccine. Each strain of the flu is different, and vaccines are only good for a single strain.
Are we looking at a pandemic with this new strain of the H1N1 virus known as the swine flu? The number of cases has grown, and with our travels the infestation is quickly spreading across multiple states in the U.S.
There are measures we can take in our daily lives to create a cleaner healthier environment, thereby reducing the risk of contracting any flu virus. Eating a healthy diet helps promote a stronger immune system. Anti-oxidants also support and promote better health. Using natural anti-bacterial and anti-viral supplements, both in your environment and in your personal health and hygiene, can wipe out a virus or flu before it takes hold.
