One Slice At A Time 31

With typical seasonal flu, adults
over 65 and children younger than
5 are considered at "high risk" for
serious complications. About 70')/0
of hospitalized swine flu victims
have had one or more medical
conditions (e.g. pregnancy. dia-
betes, heart disease, asthma, etc.)
placing them at "high risk."
So far, the burden of the
I
disease has fallen more on
•,„ people under 25 than on
(
older people. It is thought
,,i.
)
that as many as one-
0,
third (1/3) of adults over
60 may have antibodies
against the virus.

The flu virus can be
transmitted via sneez-
ing, coughing and
touching, and can last
up to 8 hours on a sur-
face. Good hygiene (e.g., washing
hands regularly). chemical ger-
micides, and alcohol are effective
against body and surface contam-
ination. Don't share food utensils.
More on protecting against swine
and seasonal flu next time.
