There is new federal, state and local guidance for schools that provides a range of response options for school administrators and public health officials. Information about flu preparedness and prevention is available on the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) website  HYPERLINK "http://www.cdc.gov/h1n1flu/parents/" http://www.cdc.gov/h1n1flu/parents/ and Modoc County Public Health website  HYPERLINK "http://www.modoccohealthservices.com" www.modoccohealthservices.com We are all hoping that the fall flu season will be mild, but it is important to be prepared for all possible scenarios, including a widespread pandemic. If flu begins spreading to large numbers of people, state and local health officers will need to balance the risk of flu cases in the community against the disruption that school dismissals can cause in both the educational field and in the community. At this time, state and local public health officials have advised that students can-- and should - continue to come to school, as long as they are not sick and do not have flu symptoms. Flu-like symptoms include: fever (over 100 degrees F), feverishness, cough, sore throat, runny nose, or stuffy nose. Additional symptoms may be experienced with swine flu, including body aches, feeling very tired and sometimes vomiting or diarrhea. The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention as well as local health officials now recommend that all individuals with an influenza-like illness or symptoms should remain home until at least 24 hours after they are free of fever without the use of fever-reducing medications (like acetaminophen or ibuprofen), and should avoid contact with others. It is also important to teach your children how to reduce their risk of getting the flu and how to protect others from becoming infected. If we all practice good hygiene, health officials believe we can limit the spread of swine flu in our schools and child care centers. Avoid close contact with people who are sick. Stay home when sick and maintain distance from other people to prevent the spread of illness. Wash hands often, with soap and hot water for at least 20 seconds (that is about as long as it takes to sing the Happy Birthday song twice). Alcohol-based hand sanitizers are also effective in reducing the spread of the flu. Cover coughs and sneezes with tissues or by coughing into the inside of the elbow. Wash hands after blowing nose or coughing into a tissue and dispose of tissues after use. Avoid touching eyes, nose, and mouth to prevent the spread of germs. Pubic health officials stress that it is very important to get separate vaccinations for seasonal flu and the H1N1 flu this year. The seasonal flu vaccines will be available in September. It is recommended that you and your family get this vaccination as soon as it is available from your health care provider or local clinic. The H1N1 vaccine is under production and may be available sometime between October and January. The H1N1 vaccine may require two shots or nasal mist doses given several weeks apart to provide adequate protection. Initially there may be limited supplies, and high-risk groups may be vaccinated first. Thank you for your cooperation in keeping our children and our schools healthy. If you have questions about the information or recommendations in this letter, please do not hesitate to contact or Modoc County Public Health at (530) 233-6311.     #P M  B C t u v   Ӱu\uE,hhh$30JCJOJQJ^JaJmH sH 1h//h$3B*CJOJQJ^JaJmH phsH +h$3B*CJOJQJ^JaJmH phsH 4jh$3B*CJOJQJU^JaJmH phsH h$3OJQJ^Jh@h@0JOJQJ^J'jh@h&OJQJU^Jjh@OJQJU^Jh@OJQJ^JhbR5OJQJ^JhbROJQJ^J"#PQ  cF9: & F$a$gdbR    =abPcsF^:qȾȾȺȯȯȯȯȯȯȾȯȯȥȥȥȥȯțȆh$jh$UhYhbROJQJ^Jh$3OJQJ^JhYOJQJ^JhbR5OJQJ^JhbRhIOJQJ^JhbROJQJ^Jh@OJQJ^Jh@h@OJQJ^J+h$3B*CJOJQJ^JaJmH phsH 3hbROJQJ^Jjh$Uh$,1h/ =!"#$% DyK yK Hhttp://www.cdc.gov/h1n1flu/parents/^ 2 0@P`p2( 0@P`p 0@P`p 0@P`p 0@P`p 0@P`p 0@P`p8XV~_HmH nH sH tH @`@ NormalCJ_HaJmH sH tH DA`D Default Paragraph FontViV  Table Normal :V 44 la (k (No List 6U@6  Hyperlink >*B*phHH  Balloon TextCJOJQJ^JaJ44 Header  !4 "4 Footer  !FV1F @FollowedHyperlink >*B*ph`d PK![Content_Types].xmlj0Eжr(΢Iw},-j4 wP-t#bΙ{UTU^hd}㨫)*1P' ^W0)T9<l#$yi};~@(Hu* Dנz/0ǰ $ X3aZ,D0j~3߶b~i>3\`?/[G\!-Rk.sԻ..a濭?PK!֧6 _rels/.relsj0 }Q%v/C/}(h"O = C?hv=Ʌ%[xp{۵_Pѣ<1H0ORBdJE4b$q_6LR7`0̞O,En7Lib/SeеPK!kytheme/theme/themeManager.xml M @}w7c(EbˮCAǠҟ7՛K Y, e.|,H,lxɴIsQ}#Ր ֵ+!,^$j=GW)E+& 8PK!Ptheme/theme/theme1.xmlYOo6w toc'vuر-MniP@I}úama[إ4:lЯGRX^6؊>$ !)O^rC$y@/yH*񄴽)޵߻UDb`}"qۋJחX^)I`nEp)liV[]1M<OP6r=zgbIguSebORD۫qu gZo~ٺlAplxpT0+[}`jzAV2Fi@qv֬5\|ʜ̭NleXdsjcs7f W+Ն7`g ȘJj|h(KD- dXiJ؇(x$( :;˹!
