There are many kinds of flu, and each year a new version circulates around. What makes this one so dangerous is it's strength, and POTENTIAL to morph into a new virus in the middle of the season. When that happens, the flu shot you got would be no good. It's kind of like when a new version of software comes out and the old one you have no longer works.
So, this is a good time to remind ourselves of the basic ways to reduce your risk of getting this NASTY bug:
1. Wash your hands regularly, at recess, lunch, after PE, and whenever you touch objects that are shared in the classroom. Our hands touch MANY things, and when we then touch our face (the place flu viruses love to enter), we are vulnerable to the virus. So, wash your hands! How long should you wash? Scrub HARD and sing the "Happy Birthday" song slowly. Seriously. . .
2. Get rest. Your body can defend itself better when it is rested. If you are tired, you are more likely to get sick.
3. Eat and drink well. Just like rest, a good diet keeps your immune system strong.
The H1N1 is here, so protect yourself! Happy, healthy living to you all!

Thanks for the update on H1N1. Another good tip, is to carry "wet ones". When no soap and water are available.

That is very helpful! So if I get a flu shot I would pretty much be IMUNE to it right? Or I just have a better chance of NOt getting the flu.
