H1N1 Notice: Please help lessen the spread of flu this season. Both seasonal and H1N1 influenza are expected to affect many people this year. The exclusion of ill persons from public, school, and group gatherings is key to lessening the spread of the flu. If you are ill, please remain at home during your illness and recovery. If you have a fever (100° F or higher), the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommends limiting contact with others until you have been without a fever for at least 24 hours.
