Good advice on Web md

http://www.webmd.com/cold-and-flu/fe...to-know?page=3

Tells us all what we must do to prevent spread of the swine flu.

excerpt off of page 3:

To help guide parents, the CDC has posted tips on caring for a child with flu-like symptoms:

Keep the child at home. Don't let him go to school or day care for 10 days after the onset of symptoms.
Keep the sick child away from other people as much as possible.
If the child has underlying health problems, see a doctor when symptoms start.
If the child is otherwise healthy, call a doctor to see if an appointment is needed.
When holding small children who are sick, place their chin on your shoulder so that they will not cough in your face.
If the child has severe symptoms, has been to an area where there have been cases of swine flu, or been directly exposed to a swine flu patient, see a doctor.
Wash your hands with soap and water often, or use an alcohol-based hand gel if soap is not available.
Keep surfaces (including toys and bedside tables) clean -- wipe them down with a household disinfectant.
Wash bed sheets and towels with laundry detergent in hot water. Avoid "hugging" the dirty laundry on the way to the washing machine, and wash your hands right after handling dirty laundry.
