H1N1 VACCINES CANCELED
Parents, we have been notified
by the Macomb County
Health Department that all school-based vaccine clinics are canceled at
this time.
H1N1 Update
Dear Parents and Guardians,
We would like to take a moment to provide
you with some important information regarding H1N1 and what Chippewa Valley
Schools is doing to prevent the spread of influenza in our schools. As you
know flu season is upon us and there have been cases of influenza reported in
our school community, both seasonal and H1N1.
We continue to follow the guidelines and
recommendations of both the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) and the Macomb
County Health Department. Both agencies have advised that it is not
necessary to notify parents each time there is a reported case of H1N1 and they
have also said it is not advisable to close schools if a confirmed H1N1 case is
reported. These actions are not necessary because we know this
influenza virus can be contracted in any number of public settings, not just
schools. We will continue to report communicable diseases to the health
department and we will monitor local flu conditions in our schools and
community. And our staff will continue to disinfect all hard, high
touch surfaces with viralcidal cleaning agents designed to eliminate these
influenza viruses.
We ask parents to continue to keep sick
children home from school. Those infected with the H1N1 virus may be able
to infect others beginning one day before symptoms develop and should be
considered potentially contagious as long as they are symptomatic and possibly
for up to 7 days following the illness onset. We urge parents to consult
with their family doctor if their child exhibits any flu-like symptoms.
H1N1 symptoms can cause fever, headache, muscle aches, cough, runny or stuffy
nose, chills and fatigue. Some individuals may also experience vomiting
and diarrhea.
We will continue to stress hand-washing and
good hygiene at school and we are asking parents to join us in this effort at
home.
To prevent the spread of influenza
illnesses, you should…
*Cover your nose and mouth with a tissue
when you cough or sneeze and dispose of the tissue in the trash after you use
it. If a tissue is not available, cough or sneeze into your elbow.
*Wash your hands often with soap and water,
especially after coughing or sneezing. Alcohol based hand cleaners using
at least 60% alcohol are also effective.
*Avoid touching your eyes, nose or mouth
because germs can be easily spread this way.
*Disinfect all surfaces with clean soap and
water or disinfectant wipes.
*Stay home from work or school if you are
sick and limit contact with others to keep from infecting others.
We will continue to provide you with
information and resources related to the H1N1 influenza. Parents
need to understand that at times we may be experiencing higher than average
absences in our schools as this flu virus moves through our community. We
appreciate your support and cooperation in helping us prevent the spread of
illness this flu season. For more information about H1N1, visit the
Chippewa Valley Schools website at www.chippewavalleyschools.org,
visit the Macomb County Health Department website at www.macombcountymi.gov/publichealth,
or visit the CDC website at www.cdc.gov/h1n1flu/qa.htm.
Thank you.
