NEWS AND ANNOUNCEMENTS:

What is swine flu?
Swine flu is a respiratory disease, caused by influenza type A which infects pigs. The US authorities say that two drugs commonly used to treat flu, Tamiflu and Relenza, seem to be effective at treating cases that have occurred there so far. However, the drugs must be administered at an early stage to be effective.

To prevent infection:

  • Avoid close contact with people who appear unwell and who have fever and cough.
  • General infection control practices and good respiratory hand hygiene can help to reduce transmission of all viruses, including the human swine influenza. This includes covering your nose and mouth when coughing or sneezing, using a tissue when possible and disposing of it promptly.
  • Maintain good basic hygiene, for example washing hands frequently with soap and water to reduce the spread of the virus from your hands to face or to other people and cleaning hard surfaces like door handles frequently using a normal cleaning product.
  • If caring for someone with a flu-like illness, a mask can be worn to cover the nose and mouth to reduce the risk of transmission.

It is safe to eat pig meat. There is no evidence that swine flu can be transmitted through eating meat from infected animals. However, it is essential to cook meat properly. A temperature of 70C (158F) would be sure to kill the virus.
