Swine Flu: Symptoms, Causes and Prevention Tips

Swine flu is a type of virus that mainly infects pigs. It doesn't normally infect people, but human infections can and do happen. The virus is contagious and can spread from human to human. The current swine influenza (H1N1) virus has components of pig and bird influenza viruses in it, so humans don't have any immunity to it. That makes it more likely to become a pandemic virus (have the ability to cause a global outbreak) if it can easily spread from person-to-person. There are antiviral medicines you can take to prevent or treat swine flu. There is no vaccine available right now to protect against swine flu.

The symptoms of swine flu are very similar to the symptoms of common flu that occurs in humans. The symptoms are mostly fever, cold, cough, runny nose, body aches, diarrhea, vomiting, headache etc. In swine flu the symptoms might be more severe like breathlessness, very high grade fever, loss of appetite and fluid intake. The important fact is to prevent the spread of this infection.

To protect yourself from swine flu, cover your nose and mouth with a tissue when you cough or sneeze. Throw the tissue in the trash after you use it. Wash your hands often with soap and water, especially after you cough or sneeze. You can also use alcohol-based hand sanitizers. Avoid touching your eyes, nose or mouth. Germs spread this way. Try to avoid close contact with sick people. Stay home from work or school if you are sick. Consult a doctor immediately when in doubt about your symptoms.
