yeay! it's my 200th post....i've been posting in this blog since 2007...glad to have my wonderful readers and thank you for reading the posts and sharing your thoughts with me...
so, back to the topic...the 2nd wave of H1N1 outbreak is back raging in Malaysia...to date, 2 deaths have been reported since the outbreak is back...that should raise our awareness to take good care of ourselves to prevent the H1N1 outbreak within our community...
personal hygiene and cleanliness are still the 1st measures to be taken by everybody seriously....by implementing such actions, the risk of transmission can be minimized...if you are having influenza-like-illness (ILI), it is advisable for you to seek medical attention to get healthcare professional opinions regarding your illness...stay at home until you are cured in order to prevent the viral spread to others...
for those who are high-risk of contracting H1N1, it is advisable to get H1N1 vaccinations..in Malaysia, they are not free..they come at a cost...talk to your healthcare provider regarding this if you are interested....
for us, we decided to vaccinate the whole family...being a healthcare professional is one of the high-risk individuals and we are not risking the life of our loved ones for it...my dear husband runs the H1N1 lab and handles the specimens, me myself work in an environment full with sick people, our children are at risks and my mother who is a diabetic is also at risk...
lastly, don't forget to pray... we've tried all sort of efforts to stop the transmission of one of the deadly virus, but He is the one who knows what is best for us...so, never stop praying for a good health...
