H1N1 Flu

Please keep in mind these general precautions for preventing flu and staying healthy: cover coughs and sneezes; wash hands frequently; and avoid touching your eyes, nose, or mouth. It is important that you stay home if you are sick with flu-like symptoms (fever greater than 100 ºF with a cough or sore throat). Tips for taking care of yourself or a family member who is ill with the flu are posted on the MCPS website.  In addition, the Centers for Disease Control had published a brochure for your information.
