Flu fighters: Vigilance, vaccines encouraged as flu season marches on

Already distributed campuswide but repeated here for the record, Counseling and Health Director Amy Henniges and Dean of Students Brenda Amenson-Hill are encouraging the UW-Green Bay community to take steps to fight influenza. Those who haven’t been vaccinated are urged to get the shot (Counseling and Health has a limited supply; call x2380), and we’re all reminded to wash our hands frequently and stay home if flu-like symptoms (fever with cough and/or sore throat) arise, to avoid spreading the disease. They also shared some helpful flu resources (check out http://www.cdc.gov/flu/keyfacts.htm#whatis, and offered a link (http://www.flu.gov) and phone number (1-800-CDC-INFO) for the most up-to-date info.
