In April 2009, a novel influenza virus began to spread around the world. The World Health Organization (WHO) refers to the virus as Influenza A(H1N1). Because this is

a new virus, most people have little or no immunity,

To prevent the spread of the virus, the WHO advises that “people who are ill should cover their mouth and nose when coughing or sneezing, stay home when they are

unwell, clean their hands regularly and keep some distance from healthy people”. We still have to go out for work or school, What if, for instance, some one near you

and he didn’t cover his mouth and nose? Rather than wishing other people to do the right things, why not protected yourself at first place? Hence, I would pick

personal protective equipment as my first choice for my emergence box. For example like surgical masks, goggles or safety spectacles, gowns and gloves(Lakkis C, Lian

KY, Napper G,& Kiely P, 2009). Surgical masks with an FDA rating of at least N-95 to help prevent spreading the flu. Also masks need to be replaced often and disposed

of after use.

Hygiene Council chair and Professor of Virology at Barts and the London School of Medicine and Dentistry, Professor John Oxford said “Practicing good hand hygiene and

regularly using hand wash and
Sanitizes and surface disinfection, are always important for protection against infection but at times of increased risk,such as during a pandemic, it is even more

critical.’ Therefore, the second object I choose for my emergence box is hand soap. If your hands are not clean and you touch your eyes or your face, even your food,

all of which serve as pathways for the virus to enter your respiratory tract. It seems like its  easiness thing to protect yourself, however, no everyone can wash

their hands precisely. I took foundation of health last semester and I found out most people wash their hands just get the hands wet add one or two drop hand soap then

wash off, so I believe I have to teach my family to scrub on both sides of their hands, between fingers, and wrists. Also need to wash around and under the finger nail

for about 15 to 20 second, then rise off. Soap should therefore be effective against all flu viruses (Ballantyne,C 2009). I would also put hand sanitizer at home, in

case too often wash hands dry the skin, using about a quarter-size spot, rubbed all over the hands until the sanitizer evaporates usually 10 to 15 seconds.

Most importance object is drugs, such as anti-flu medications, including Tamiflu (oseltamivir) and Relenza (zanamivir), are also available to prevent swine flu if you

have been exposed to someone who is sick with it.  Zinc has been shown in clinical reduce the duration of colds.
