The flu is coming! The flu is coming!



Scared of getting sick... or of you kids getting sick? Know when to relax and when to break out the disinfecting wipes by checking flustar.com - a site that tracks the flu. Enter your zip code and see how prevalent the flu bug is in your area. When the flu levels are high, don't panic! Wash your hands often, carry around an alchohol-based cleanser (such as Purell) and disinfecting wipes for germy surfaces (phones, grocery carts, faucet handles, etc.). Stay healthy!
