When You feel Sick...

If you are feeling sick or believe you have H1N1:

1. Stay Home- unless you have risk factors or are very ill.
2. Know TESTING IS NOT RECOMMENDED for H1N1.  The diagnosis of H1N1 is based on symptoms alone.
3. Seek Medical Attention if you are experiencing these warning signs.
4. Over the counter medicine is what we recommend to treat symptoms.  We have a list of OTC meds in our Cold and Flu section under Health Topics.
5. If you have a fever, do not return to class or work until you are fever free for 24-hours without medication. You are still considered contagious in that 24-hour period.
6. Get a School Excuse.  We have these available online so you don't have to leave home.
