Unlike previous years, this year the H1N1 virus is included amongst the strains related to influenza (“grippe” or “flu”) so it is more controllable than before. So we recommend the Vaccination Programme based on the national plan prepared by the MSP (Ministry of Public Health). for this winter Anti-flu and anti- pneumococcal vaccine. On having the common symptoms you should consult your doctor, preferably at home, and only go to the Hospital on his recommendation or if it is really urgent. Do not forget to: Cover your mouth and nose with a paper handkerchief when you cough or sneeze. Discard the used paper handkerchiefs into a container (trash can) with a lid. Take care when children are sharing games and toys. Wash your hands very frequently.
