Outbreak of Swine Flu?

Interesting to see all of the media outlets going bananas about the possible pandemic of "Swine Flu." Seems approximately 40,000 folks in the U.S. every year die from regular influenza, so perhaps all of the panic over the Swine Flu is overkill, or perhaps not?

Well, it is our job to always be helpful about things relating to health plans etc....so folks, check your current health plan website and see if they offer vouchers for Zicam and/or Purell, as these are both things that every newspaper in the Northeast anyway, refer to as good Flu busters. Also wash your hands LOTS and more than once at each visit to a sink (you would be suprised how many germs remain after 1 good washing). Avoid sick people, and if you feel sick, you should not pass along your germs to folks at your workplace, so maybe you should stay home.

These are some helpful things that have been passed along to us, hopefully they are helpful to all of our customers at www.healthinsurancegeeks.com

One last thing, this will devastate the Mexican vacation spots as most folks on TV say to NOT travel to Mexico unless it is absolutely necessary. Maybe wearing a surgical mask in the airport will become commonplace.
