Let's face it - people like to panic. While this strain of the flu is indeed a very dangerous one according to all reports it is also "just the flu". I have avoided the flu for the last several years by following a few simple rules:
Avoid shaking hands. I know this is tough for us but it's one of the best ways to get disease and infection. As odd as it may seem to you a little bow, salute or fist bump may save your life. If not your life at least a few days of feeling really badly.
Always wash your hands. For several years I have kept a bottle of hand sanitizer close by. I keep one in my console of my cars and and my truck, two or three around the office and some spares in the house. Here is a great 6 pack of flu fighting hand sanitizer that I love to order.
If you don't mind reading a few pages there is a great guide to avoiding and preventing the flu available from Amazon as well.
Cornelly University has some great resources on stopping the flu.
