Advice the Public for Swine Flu and Schools

July 4th, 2009 by admin | Filed under Swine Flu


Swine flu is a virus that is particularly affecting children and young adults. Children are proving to be highly efficient carriers of the swine flu (H1N1) virus and schools provide the perfect environment for it to spread. The HPA provides advice to schools on whether they should close or stay open and also on measures schools can take to try to slow the spread of the disease. This leaflet aims to explain how we make our decisions and let you know how you can help to combat swine flu.

In some instances where there are significant levels of local transmission of swine flu, children and adults are likely to be repeatedly exposed to the disease, making preventative medication ineffective.

There is good evidence that in the majority of swine flu patients the disease is generally mild, but it is also proving severe in a small minority of cases. It is preferable to avoid exposure to the virus if possible, which also helps to protect high-risk groups from unnecessary risk. However, children should not be kept off school if they are well and their school is open.
