Dear All,
Good day.
Influenza (commonly known as the flu) is a contagious respiratory illness caused by influenza viruses. It can cause mild to severe illness, and in some cases, may lead to serious health complications. To help prevent the spread of influenza in our community, we encourage everyone to observe the following preventive measures:
Practice Proper Hygiene
Wash hands frequently with soap and water for at least 20 seconds.
Use alcohol-based hand sanitizers when soap and water are not available.
Cover your mouth and nose with a tissue or your elbow when coughing or sneezing.
Stay Healthy
Eat a balanced diet, exercise regularly, and get adequate rest.
Drink plenty of fluids to stay hydrated.
Strengthen your immune system with vitamins as advised by your healthcare provider.
Get Vaccinated
Annual flu vaccination is strongly recommended as the most effective way to prevent influenza and its complications.
Monitor for Symptoms
Be alert for flu symptoms such as fever, cough, sore throat, runny nose, body aches, fatigue, and headache.
If you are sick, stay at home to avoid infecting others. Seek medical advice if symptoms worsen.
Maintain Clean Surroundings
Regularly disinfect commonly touched surfaces such as doorknobs, keyboards, and shared equipment.
