Things You'll Need:
- lysol
- bleach
- fans
- chlorascrub
- alcohol solution or wipes.

Step 1
Swine flu is a respiratory disease caused by type A influenza virus. The disease can be spread form human to human.
-
Step 2
In the past the swine flu did not normal infect humans. However the virus has been apparently mutating. The symptom of swine flu include sore throat, body aches fever, cough and sometime diarrhea and vomiting.
-
Step 3
The bacteria and virus can live outside the body for up to 2 hours and sometimes longer. These germs spread when someone sneezes or coughs that grabs a door knob or pushes around a shopping cart. You come along touch these contaminated surfaces than touch your eye or eat something with your hands. SMOKERS and Nail biters are at a greater risk of infection because of the hand to mouth contact associated with these habits.
-
Step 4
After leaving a public place wash your hands before getting into your car or returning home. Carrying a bottle of an alcohol based waterless solution or wipes are great to carry around with you at all times.
If you use a public restroom to wash your hands remember not to recontaminate them with touching the door handle. use a paper towel.
That's why automatic dryers are worthless if you have to touch the door handle when you leave the restroom. The guy or girl before you may not have been as clean. ( Automatic Doors would be great ) -
Step 5
Bleach everything in your home from counter tops, your sinks, tables, toilets showers and shower sponges. Don't forget the door knobs and light switches. BLEACH kills everything. Good and bad so be careful have plenty of ventilation.
-
Step 6
Open up all your windows turn on your fans and keep the air circulating in your home. This helps rid your home of the bacteria.
-
Step 7
Wash all your linens, bed sheets, pillow cases and anything else a contaminates person has touched, coughed on or sneezed on.
-
Step 8
Buy a large can of Lysol spray that kills the Flu virus. Spray your mattresses, couch, pillows and even door knobs, light switches sink handles, washer machine handles any surfaces the infected person may have touched. Toilet handle especially.
-
Step 9
As an added step I bought Chlorascrub Swabs ( they even kill the MRSA virus. Visit the CDC link below to learn more on MRSA) and wiped our cell phones, remotes , including the Nintendo Wii , play stations, laptops and the kids game systems.
-
Step 10
Washing your hands with most soaps does nothing to kill viruses but rubbing them together with soap and water creating a lot of friction for at least 25 seconds or the time it takes you to say the alphabet than rinsing your hands under warm water starting at the wrist working down to the finger tips is all you need to remove unwanted bacteria.

on 10/13/2009 I'm vegan, take Vitamin D daily, wash hands often, disinfect with white vinegar in a spray bottle, and currently take 1 veg capsule filled with oil of oregano, twice per day. It is my understanding that oil of oregano kills germs, boosts immunity, and may even be an anti-fungal agent. There are MANY natural items we can use to remain healthy. Everyone around me is sick for a couple of weeks now but I remain healthy.

on 10/7/2009 I have to disagree a bit with some of these recommendations, as we have to keep in mind - the swine flu is a flu - something most people deal with each year and few die from unless they have other serious health complications.
On the other hand, if one was to take all this advice, they would turn their house, and life into a chemical laboratory. Many of the chemicals mentioned are super harsh on the environment, not to mention one's skin. In fact they can even seriously irritate our lung tissue, making us more susceptible to picking up a respiratory infection.
Step #5, 8 and 9 are way over board - this is not some killer plague - at that rate the chemicals will kill you faster than any flu ever would.
Yes, use common sense and stick to #10 in a smart and conscious way - but more importantly get your body healthy by not putting junk in it. People tend to forget that we have an immu...

on 9/2/2009 Great article!
Re: step 8 and 9 - Here's a disinfectant that says it kills for 24 hours (and that most only kill for 2 hours) - it says it kills h1n1 (swine) virus as well as the MRSA that you mention.
