The H1N1/09 influenza A virus strain (also referred to as the "Swine Flu") is responsible for the current pandemic situation in North America as well as the rest of the world. Vaccination is not the only line of defense that people have in taking preventative measures against this very serious reality. H1N1 has unfortunately already claimed the lives of Canadians and we need to do what we can to futher prevent unnecessary tragedies.

The human transmission element of the virus has made it more vital than ever that we adhere to basic prevention techniques such as hand washing, covering the mouth and nose when sneezing or coughing etc. The links below provide up to date information on the virus as well as a wealth of information on prevention methods.
