SWINE FLU INFORMATION: Coming to you from the Extension Disaster Education Network (EDEN) is a web link that is helpful in providing science based information on the swine flu. EDEN has a section on the "Influenza Issue Page" with up-to-date info: www.eden.lsu.edu/influenza
Children less than 5 years of age are at increased risk of complications from influenze; the risk is greater among children less than 2 years old. Importantly, infants less than 6 months of age represent a particularly vulnerable group because they are too young to receive the seasonal or 2009 H1N1 influenza vaccine; as a result, individuals responsible for caring for these children constitute a high-priority group for early vaccination. Important response to Influenza during the 2009-2010 Season.
