Swine Flu Update

The swine flu vaccine is being rolled out across the country, but meanwhile what protective measures should we be taking?

Washing hands regularly and sneezing into a paper tissue and throwing it away immediately are top of the list. And as a strong immune system is the best defence against invading viruses you should consider stocking up on the herbal remedies pelargonium and Echinacea, both of which will help increase your natural resistance.
