But if you\u00a0turn on the TV, listen to the radio, search the internet,\u00a0or\u00a0hang around the water cooler, folks are talking about it. CNN.com<\/a> alone used its top 5 “Latest News” articles to inform the public about\u00a0Swine Flu.\u00a0The best resource for learning more about the “Swine Flu” is at\u00a0\u00a0Centers for Disease Control and Prevention<\/a>.<\/p>\n There have been more than\u00a040 cases of confirmed Swine Flu infections in the United States.\u00a0More than half of them have been reported in\u00a0New York.<\/p>\n Tamiflu can be prescribed before the onset of Swine Flu. However, it should not be used until symptoms of the flu are present.<\/p>\n Why Is Tamiflu a Viable Solution for\u00a0Swine Flu:<\/strong><\/p>\n 1) The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) have recommended only two medications for the treatment of Swine Flu — Tamiflu and Relenza.<\/p>\n 2) if taken within\u00a048 hours of initial symptoms, Tamiflu is proven to\u00a0make the flu\u00a0illness milder and make patients\u00a0feel better faster.<\/p>\n 3) Tamiflu may also prevent serious influenza complications.<\/p>\n 4) Tamiflu can\u00a0be used to prevent influenza, however many doctors recommend this only in cases when the patient is highly suspected of already\u00a0harboring\u00a0the virus.<\/p>\n For best treatment, Tamiflu works best if taken within 48 hours after illness starts.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" News about the Swine Flu\u00a0is everywhere and many Americans are following the situation closely.\u00a0President Barack Obama has said the situation is cause for concern but not alarm.
