If you are within six feet of a person who is infected you are at risk.
There is no way of knowing who is infected so you need to take precqautions against this flu. You can wear a mask to avoid inhaling the virus. A mask is only effective for 30 minutes at the most before your breath saturates it and the virus moves through the mask into yor mouth. When you remove a mask you must immediaely wash your hands, or the vrus will be on your body and if you touch your mouth or nose you will infect yourself.
Keep your hands away from your nose and mouth. If you touch a doorhandle or other surface that is infected and then touch your mouth or nose you will be infected.
You need to either wear gloves or avoid touching shred surfaces such as door handles, worktops, supermarket trolleys and avoid shaking hands with people. They may be infected and ass the germs onto your hands.
if you must use a public restroom wash your hands immediately before leaving. Before even doing that consider this. the sink handle or press button will be the last thing you touch...and the last thing everyone else will touch as well and is probably the mostinfected item in the restroom. Use a paper towel when using the sink taps and avoid infection.
Clean your shoes with a disinfecting spray before entering your house, or even better leave them in a garage. The vuris could be on the flor at your place of work, on the subway or even on your path. Make sure you do not keep slippers or other shoes near to your outdoor footwear. the virus can easily spread.
If you develop symptoms vist your doctor or ER immediately. At the present time there are only tamiflu definitely helps and there have been some ancedotal stories that resveratrol helps to boost your immune system as well.
Tamiflu must be taken within 48 hours of infection to work.
