What is swine flu?
Everybody is talking about swine flu but what is swine flu anyway? This is an excellent video put together by the Boston Public Health commission that very clearly explains swine flu. The doctor puts swine flu into everyday terms and explains swine flu symptoms and what to do if you think you have swine flu. This is explained in both how to take care of your own health and also how to minimize the risk of you spreading swine flu to the greater public.
The doctor also talks about swine flu masks. She talks about if they work and how to properly wear a swine flu mask if you do decide to wear one. Possibly the most important swine flu information that is expressed in this video is the need to call your doctor first prior to visiting if you think you are displaying swine flu symptoms. This is so that they can prepare to treat any swine flu symptoms without putting other members of the public at risk.
