TIPS

The World Health Organization's urges travelers to postpone all but essential trips to Hong Kong and adjoining Guangdong Province in China. Wash hands regularly with soap, never touch the face except after washing hands, eat a well balanced diet, get plenty of rest, avoid crowded places with poor ventilation and keep windows down for fresh air when in taxis. It is not clear if wearing a mask provides a significant benefit. The W.H.O. says that it appears the virus can also be transmitted through handshakes or by having droplets from coughs or sneezes come in contact with the eyes.

SEEK MEDICAL ATTENTION IF YOU HAVE:

High fever (100.4 F or 38 C) One or more respiratory symptoms including cough, shortness of breath, difficulty breathing Close contact with a person who has been diagnosed with SARS Recent history of travel to areas reporting cases of SARS.
