Be prepared NOW!

As you know, earlier thisyear, many people nationwide and overseas came down with Swine Flu. Many of those people died. Right now,the H1N1, the virus formerly known as Swine Flu, has quieted itself. That won't last for long if health authorities are correct. They are expecting anywhere from 560,000 to 1.1 million people in Kansas ALONE will be infected with it during the next 2 years. Vaccines should be available by mid-October.

They are advising Americans to gather and set aside enough food for your family and yourself for 3-5 days just in case. You also need to keep adequate amounts of pain relievers and fever busters on hand. That way, you nor your family will be forced to leave your home to go get supplies therefore spreading your illness to others.

It is very important that you wash your hands often and well.

If you think that you are sick STAY HOME!!! If you suspect that you might have Swine Flu, do NOT go to the clinics, hospitals or emergency rooms as long as you are only having mild cases. If you are sick and have chronic health conditions such as diabetes and heart problems, contact your doctors by phone to see what you should do next.

It is very possible that schools and daycare centers may be forced to close off and on during the next 2 years.

Please pray that the authorities are wrong and that the illness will not spread causing death and so much anguish.
