Some employees may need to stay on the job and be sequestered to avoid coming in contact with the virus. A written plan for these employees and their families should be created so that supplies and necessities are on-site before a pandemic hits.

At this time, the severity of disease in an avian influenza infection appears to be related to the loading dose. It is apparent that reducing viral load early in the disease process should be an important goal leading to better outcomes.
So what about those people for whom Tamiflu will not be an option, or for those whose infection is with a Tamiflu resistant strain? Additionally, helping your body to become more resistant to viral infection is another important goal.

With those goals in mind, this information is offered, and of course, it is not medical advice, nor is it a substitute for medical advice. Please read the disclaimers, and speak with your physician about this information.
