News Updates
From Our Brent Manila Clinic
Thursday, 4 June 2009
The Influenza A(H1N1) virus is in the Philippines. As of 3 June 2009, there were twenty‑one confirmed cases up from six confirmed cases last 31 May 2009. The Department of Health (DOH) is tracking those individuals who have been exposed to this disease.
With this message, therefore, we would like to remind you of some simple, everyday measures that everyone can follow in order to avoid infection. To control the transmission and fight off the disease, we recommend:
- Regular hand hygiene:
- Wash your hands regularly with soap and water especially when you cough and sneeze. Alcohol‑based hand cleaners are also effective.
- Observing cough etiquette:
- Cover your nose and mouth with a tissue when coughing or sneezing.
- When not necessary, avoid crowds, especially in enclosed venues:
- Avoid close contact with sick people.
- Get enough sleep and eat a healthy diet.
- Clean and disinfect your environment regularly.
- Consider wearing masks or other personal protective equipment when going into crowded areas especially if your resistance is low and you are not feeling well.
- Consult your doctor immediately should signs and symptoms of flu persists.
According to the World Health Organization, everyone has a role to play in preventing the spread of the Influenza A(H1N1) virus. It is important to reiterate to people who feel ill that they should delay their travel in order to protect themselves and others.
Since it is already flu season in the Philippines, influenza vaccine is another good prevention against influenza. Ask your doctor about getting a flu vaccine.
Yours in Good Health,
Brent Clinic
