Symptoms of H1N1
“The virus is now unstoppable.”

Apparently, the world’s governments are powerless to prevent the spread of H1N1 Flu, but there are things that you can do to protect yourself and your family.
Stock up on whatever supplies you believe you might need, now. If the worst case scenario occurs at least you will be prepared. Learn to recognize the symptoms of H1N1, understand what to do in case you or a love one is infected.
Symptoms
The symptoms of the H1N1 Flu virus in people are similar to the symptoms of common seasonal flu. The most common H1N1 symptoms include:
• Fever – particularly a fever of over 100 degrees
• Sore throat
• Cough
• Chills and fatigue
• Body aches
• Headache
• Occasionally, vomiting and diarrhea
Persons who experience flu-like symptoms should immediately contact their physician, but, remember, Swine Flu is a highly contagious disease and people who believe they are infected with H1N1 should avoid going out in public unless absolutely necessary. So, call first.
Warning Signs
People at higher risk of serious complications from seasonal flu, including people over the age 65, and children younger than 5 years old, pregnant women, people of any age with chronic medical conditions (such as asthma, diabetes, or heart disease), and people who are infected with HIV should be extra vigilant in looking for the symptoms of H1N1.
Because young children often cannot explain how they are feeling it especially important to keep an eye out for children who are having difficulty breathing.
If any person, but particularly small children and others in high risk groups, exhibit any of the following serious warning signs, seek immediate emergency medical care:
• Trouble breathing, including rapid breathing.
• Gray or bluish skin color
• Not drinking enough fluids
• Sleeping constantly and not interacting when awake
• Being especially irritable
• Not urinating or no tears when crying
• The symptoms improve but then return with fever and worse cough
H1N1 Symptoms: Summary
Nearly, everything you learned about the symptoms of traditional flu is true of H1N1 symptoms, so you’re probably thinking, why all the concern? What worries public health professionals is that there is not a vaccine available for H1N1, though one is being manufactured, and the vaccine for the regular flu will not be effective against this newly discovered strain.
That means, if the vaccines are available, you will need two flu shots to be fully protected from both H1N1 and the normal seasonal variety of the flu.
Finally, the simple fact that the virus is new is a real concern, because there is concern that it might mutate into something more deadly. Remember, the regular seasonal flu strain kills hundreds of thousands of people around the world each year, and, so, even if H1N1 turns out to be no more virulent than the regular flu that is still an awful disaster on the grandest scale.
At this point it is hard to know what the ultimate out come of the H1N1 pandemic will be. Be prepared, but don’t panic.
