CATCH IT. BIN IT. KILL IT
A mass public health campaign has begun today with TV, print and radio adverts warning people about swine flu with the simple message: CATCH IT. BIN IT. KILL IT.
It is important to emphasise that in all cases outside Mexico, the symptoms of this illness are mild and all patients have made a full recovery.
Take simple measures to prevent infection.
Wash Hands Regularly.
Where washing facilities are unavailable or when travelling, consider using an antibacterial gel for the hands, such as that used in medical establishments.
Sneeze or cough into a TISSUE handkerchief (Not your hand), ensuring that both the nose and mouth are covered. Then dispose of the tissue IMMEDIATELY.
Anyone who develops flu-like symptoms should go home and contact their GP.
Anyone who has recently travelled to the affected areas and is experiencing influenza-like illness should stay at home to limit contact with others and seek medical advice by phone from a local health professional or NHS Direct.
Ensuring a clean home or workplace free of bacteria will keep you healthy and mobilis direct offers some of the best cleaning products available. With sterilisation products, disposable gloves and masks, and wipes and sprays for both surfaces and the skin, you can keep your environment clean.
