Beverly Hills, CA (PRWEB) April 15, 2006

Each year, there is always a new wave of flu that says hello at the beginning of fall. And though everyone is aware of the danger that it brings with it, a lot of people let it in. The symptoms of bird flu normally depend on the virus which has caused the infection. These symptoms are usually referred to as “flu symptoms". In addition, people infected with influenza complain of moderate or severe malaise and fatigue. Illness can last for up to 1-2 weeks, although fever generally lasts only 3-8 days. In that context, here we will discuss how to keep Bird flu at bay with simple practices and methodologies.

Hygiene

Proper hygiene is probably the only way to keep all kinds of infections and diseases out. Under this ambit’ eating clean food, washing hands regularly and drinking clean water take top spots.

Proper Eating Habits

Eating has a direct affect on the well being of a person. One wrong choice of stale or infected food and the body can go into turmoil. The same applies for clean water. And with regards to washing hands regularly, especially during the ‘flu season’, one can easily pick up the cold and flu germs from things other people have touched. That is why washing hands regularly with warm water and soap becomes essential to keep germs from entering the system. Do not eat raw or half cooked chicken or poultry meat. It is always advised to cook or boil eggs thoroughly at 70 degree centigrade before having them as at this temperature viruses get killed.

Stay away from infected people.

Avian Flu is a very contagious disease. Therefore, it is mandatory to stay away from people who are infected in order to reduce the risk of getting infected. On that line, it is quite logical to avoid badly maintained poultry, crowded places and enclosed areas during the flu season.

Get vaccinated

Getting vaccinated is a good way to keep Bird flu at a distance. Through vaccination, the body stays prepared to fight the incoming threat. Though most healthy people don’t need to get vaccinated for flu, however, old people, young children and those suffering from certain health conditions like diabetes, chronic heart and lung problems and kidney problems should seriously consider getting vaccinated.

Buy Tamiflu

Sometimes even with all the precautionary measures taken, it is possible to get infected. Influenza virus is shed through saliva, nasal secretions and feces by the infected birds. Susceptible birds coming in contact with the contaminated excretion or secretion become immediately affected. Usually badly maintained poultry and unhygienic condition in the cages etc. are a primal source of this infection. During such an event, drugs like Tamiflu, oseltamivir phosphate are very useful to fight off the disease from the system. The USP of Tamiflu is that it just doesn’t curb the symptoms, but its cures the body of the germs.
