Think you might have the flu? You're not alone. People across the region are experiencing symptoms of the H1N1 (swine) flu and seasonal flu. Symptoms include:
  • fever
  • body aches
  • runny or stuffy nose
  • sore throat
  • nausea
  • vomiting and/or diarrhea
You should stay home and avoid contact with other people. Staying at home means that you should not leave your home except to seek medical care. This means avoiding normal activities, including work, school, travel, shopping, social events, and public gatherings.

To prevent overcrowding in local ERs and to guard against spreading influenza to people within the ER and the hospital, please use the ER only if you are seriously ill. If you suspect you may have the flu, you are urged to first contact your physician or an area Urgent Care facility listed on the right side of this page.
