At Church last Sunday, Sister Spencer, a nurse, on assignment from the bishop, told us what to do regarding this threat.
~Carry lost of Kleenix in your purse (plus a plastic ziploc bag to store used tissue in) and blow your nose, cough or sneeze into these. Do not cough or sneez into you elbow and shoulder if you can avoid it. Use tissue.
~Wash, wash, wash your hands. Wash your hands before you eat.
If you are out and about, you will be touching things that other people have touched. Do not touch your eyes, mouth, nose! Unless you have returned home and thoroughly washed your hands.
~If you are sick, do not go out among people.
~Go to www.cdc.gov for updates on this swine flu and other health concerns.
