Flu Prevention Steps
Flu season is here and
more and more people
across the country are get-
ting sick. The American
Red Cross urges people to
get vaccinated now and of-
fers tips everyone can fol-
low to help prevent the
spread of the flu.
The Centers for Disease
Control (CDC)report for
the week of December 29 to
January 4 shows 35 states
are seeing widespread flu
activity, up from 25 a week
earlier. These states include
Alabama, Alaska, Arkan-
sas, California, Colorado,
Connecticut, Georgia,
Idaho, Illinois, Indiana,
Kansas, Kentucky, Louisi-
ana, Maine, Massachusetts,
Minnesota, Missouri, Mon-
tana, Nebraska, New
Hampshire, New York,
North Carolina, North Da-
kota, Ohio, Oklahoma, Or-
egon, Pennsylvania, Rhode
Island, South Dakota,
Texas, Utah, Virginia,
Washington, Wisconsin
and Wyoming. Most other
regions are also reporting a
number of residents sick
with influenza.
According to the Polk
County Health Depart-
ment, surveillance data in
Iowa shows that while still
relatively low, influenza
activity is increasing and
that the dominant strain is
HIN1, which can pose a
higher risk for complica-
tions such as pneumonia
and hospitalizations in very
young children and preg-
nant women. The good
news is the .strain was in-
cluded in this year's flu vac-
cinarion.

The CDC recommends
a yearly flu vaccine for ev-
eryone six months of age
and older. Other steps
people can take to help
prevent the spread of the
flu virus:
1. Stay home if sick.
2. Avoid close contact
with people who are sick.
3. Cover the nose and
mouth with a tissue or
sleeve when coughing or
sneezing and throw the tis-
sue away after use. If that's
not possible, cough or
sneeze into the elbow, not
the hands. People with the
flu can spread it to others
about six feet away
through coughs and
sneezes.
4. Wash hands often,
especially after coughing
or sneezing. If soap and
water are not available, use
an alcohol-based hand-
rub.
5. Avoid touching the
eyes, nose or mouth.
"If someone has the flu
they should avoid contact
with others as much as
possible," said Kara Kelly,
Regional Communications
Officer, American Red
Cross serving Greater
Iowa. "Everyone should
also disinfect surfaces
used commonly such as
door knobs, switches,
phones, computers and
remote controls."
The common signs of
influenza are high fever,
severe body aches, head-
ache, being extremely
tired, sore throat, cough,
• runny or stuffy nose, and
vomiting and/or diarrhea
(more common in chil-
dren). If someone thinks
they have the flu, their
health-care provider
should be consulted.
Someone should seek
medical care immediately
if they develop any of the
following symptoms:
• Fast breathing, trouble
breathing or bluish skin
color.
• Pain or pressure in the
chest or abdomen (adults).
• Confusion or sudden
dizziness.
• Not drinking enough
fluids, not being able to
eat, or severe or persistent
vomiting.
• Flu-like symptoms
that improve but then re-
turn with fever and worse
cough.
• Children - not waking
up, being so irritable that
the child does not want to
be held or not interacting.
Fever with a rash. No
tears when crying or sig-
nificantly fewer wet dia-
pers than normal.

about influenza and how
to help stop the spread of
the flu virus is available
