HOW TO PREVENT IT. WHAT TO DO IF YOU GET IT.
The outbreak of H1N1 (swine) flu continues to expand in the United States and has many people worried. Dr. Timothy Burke, an SMDC Health System infectious disease specialist, shares the latest information, as well as what you can do to protect yourself and your family.
 
 
 
 

“As an infectious disease specialist, if I could tell you just one thing about improving your health, that would be wash your hands. I know it seems simple, but it’s true.”


—Dr. Timothy Burke
 
 
 


One of the best things you can do is
stay informed.
