H1N1

Reported cases of confirmed H1N1 in Geneva are on the increase. Current numbers are no doubt much lower than real cases, however as testing is not always done. Whether H1N1 or other seasonal illness, several actions remain the same: handwashing and other appropriate hygiene (such as coughing or sneezing into a sleeve) and staying at home when ill are key measures in decreasing the spread of any infection in the student population.
