So here''s my health advisory for the week: my kids went back to school week before last and the flu is running rampant through school. The docs have said that it is the right type (A?) for H1N1 so they are assuming that''s it.
The bad news is that it seems to spread really easily. The good news is that it''s fairly mild for the flu. Similar to the regular flu with a high, persistent fever and body aches. No fun, but it doesn''t seem to be especially dangerous. I''m looking at the silver lining that we won''t have to worry if it becomes more severe.
My local Target is out of thermometers, kids ibuprofen and similar items so it might be a good idea to make sure your medicine cabinet is stocked.
Be healthy!
