The H1N1 flu, also known as swine flu, is a respiratory illness similar to seasonal influenza. Washing your hands thoroughly using soap and water is the number one prevention to help avoid the H1N1 flu virus. Keeping your hands away from your face, covering your nose and mouth when coughing and sneezing, avoiding sick individuals, and staying home when sick are the best ways to prevent contracting and spreading the flu.
