Public Service Announcements: What do I do to prevent swine flu?

Swine Flu Radio PSA #1 (30 sec.)

Announcer:

What do I do to prevent swine flu?

I stay about six feet away from people who I know are sick.

I wash my hands a lot…usually with warm soap and water…or I use an alcohol-based hand sanitizer.

I cover my mouth when I cough or sneeze with a tissue, or even my upper sleeve.

If I do get sick, I know that I should stay home and away from others, because I don’t want to spread germs and make others sick.

And if I don’t feel better, I see a doctor.

So, what do you do to prevent swine flu?

Swine Flu Radio PSA #2 (30 sec.)

Announcer:

What do I do to prevent swine flu?

I always cover my mouth when I cough and sneeze.

I use a tissue if one’s handy, and then throw it away. If not, I use my upper sleeve.

I wash my hands more often.

Washing with soap and water for about twenty seconds helps kill germs that cause flu. And if I’m out and about, I use an alcohol-based hand sanitizer.

I don’t want to get sick. And I don’t want to make others sick.

So, what do you do to prevent swine flu?

To learn more, go to S-C-DHEC-dot-gov.
