Flu Information
Do you have questions about
the swine flu?
The 2009 H1N1 influenza
virus has caused the first
influenza pandemic in more
than 40 years. Concern that
this strain of influenza
will cause this flu season
to be worse than normal had
led to local agencies
stepping-up their
preparedness and planning
efforts. Working alongside
area health departments and
emergency planning agencies,
the Red Cross hopes to help
increase the amount of
education it can direct
residents to around pandemic
flu, and specifically, H1N1.
In Ohio call
1-866-800-1404
from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.,
Monday through Friday.
Information on human swine
flu can be found on the CDC
web site or by calling
1-800-CDC-INFO.

The
American Red Cross encourages people
to register themselves on the Safe
and Well Website, which is
accessible at all times via
www.redcross.org, or by clicking
on the banner link. The Safe and
Well Website is an Internet-based
tool that allows those affected by a
disaster to let their loved ones
know of their well-being. People
within a disaster-affected area are
able to select and post standard
messages. Concerned family members
who know the person’s current phone
number or a complete home address
can then search for the posted
messages, providing peace of mind.
