A reminder for the campus community. Human cases of the swine flu have been confirmed in the United States. However, no cases have been confirmed in Virginia as of this morning. Still we must all remain vigilant.

According to the Centers for Disease Control, here is what you can do to stay healthy: 

•  If you get sick, stay home from work or school and limit contact with others to keep from infecting them.
• If you feel you need medical attention, call ahead first so health care providers can take necessary infection control measures
• Cover your nose and mouth with a tissue when you cough or sneeze. Throw the tissue in the trash after you use it.
• Wash your hands often with soap and water, especially after you cough or sneeze. Alcohol-based hand cleaners are also effective.
• Try to avoid close contact with sick people.
• Avoid touching your eyes, nose or mouth to prevent the spread of germs.
