Hi Friends

Please advise what is the best way to protect ourselves from Swine flu. Is vitamin C good?

Any suggestions.

As of now this Singapore is not affected but there are our friends in all over the world who can benefit from this discussion. Specially kids.

Thanks

As of now, people at CDC are trying to figure out the cure for it as the virus is bit tricky and continuously mutating with current one being the latest version. More information on precaution and symptoms can be viewed in the link above. May God protect us all

Narendra:
WHO (World Health Organization raised its pandemic alert to 5 (6 being the highest). I am surprised the spread of the virus is going on so fast.

The precautions to take are the one's indicated for regular flu.

Wash hands more frequently.
Try not to touch surfaces/person that may be infected by the virus.
Don't touch mouth, nose, eyes after touching any such surface/person.

SF:
The only Antiviral drugs (not vaccine) that's shown to prevent and decrease/cure the symptoms of the flu are Tamiflu (by Roche) and Relenza (by Glaxo). One of these drugs must be taken within the first 48 hrs of onset of flu symptoms. Only take these drugs if you are infected and observe symptoms. You do what Narendra suggested to prevent getting infected.
