Butte County Office of Education has received H1N1 supplies from the California Department of Education and will be distributing them to our school districts on Friday, January 8th and Monday, January 11th.

Butte County Office of Education encourages families to be informed about prevention of the Swine Flu.

Stop germs from spreading.  By doing a few simple things, we can stop the spread of germs:

• Wash your hands often using soap and water.
• Cover your mouth and nose with tissue when coughing and sneezing.  Throw used tissues into the trash and then wash your hands.
• Cough into your sleeve.
• Stay home if you are sick and stay away from others as much as possible.
• Keep children home if they are sick.
• Avoid close contact with people who are sick.

Spread the word.  Tell family and friends about these simple measures.

By working together and following these simple guidelines, we can limit the spread of disease.
