Bird Flu Preparedness Week! Item 2: Teach children to wash hands frequently with soap and water
Ladies and Gentlemen, winter is fast approaching. While this means Ice Skating and brand new Youtube videos of Snowboarding Faceplants, it also serves as a stark reminder that another Flu season is upon us. We all need to take certain precautions against the ever-present threat of a Bird Flu pandemic. Therefore, as a public service, Jeremy Is In The Office, in association with Miracle Posting, Inc is proud to present this vitally important Theme Week chock full of helpful tips to prepare for and slow the inevitable spread of this deadly disease.
While the current variant of Bird Flu is unable to spread to humans via air transport, the H5n1's ability to mutate quickly is precisely where the danger lies. Once it changes itself enough to spread via the air and the more traditional Flu transport mechanisms, the pandemic will begin. When this happens, much like any other virus, it will be important to keep your hands clean at all times. This means plenty of handwashing with a good antibacterial soap, plenty of hot water, and some of that alcohol-based sanitizer. Diligence will be key to survival, so start the good habits now, while you still can.
