Health Announcements

Swine Flu Information

Health Services will keep faculty/ staff, and students notified of any new information posted on this site.

Signs & Symptoms

The symptoms of swine flu in people are similar tothe symptoms of regular human flu and include:
- Fever
- Cough
- Sore throat
- Body aches
- Headache
- Chills
- Fatigue
Some people have reported diarrhea and vomiting associated with the swine flu. In the past, severe illness (pneumonia and respiratory failure) and deaths have been reported with swine flu infection in people. Like seasonal flu, swine flu may cause a worsening of underlying chronic medical conditions.

Take this condition seriously, as swine flu varies from mild to severe. If you feel sick, see a doctor. You may need to limit your contact with others so you don’t infect them. Avoid spreading germs by:
- Not touching your eyes, nose, or mouth
- Covering your nose and mouth with a tissue when you cough or sneeze (and then throwing that tissue out!)
- Washing your hands often with soap and water, (especially after coughing /sneezing), or use alcohol-based hand cleaners.
