Going green
Kieran Weir added some dirt to the base of one of the nine trees the congregation of Zion Lutheran Church here planted at the south property line of the church Sunday morning. Alongside being dedicated and blessed on behalf of passed loved ones, the trees are part of the churchs recent initiatives to go green. Peggy Revell photo
minister isnt sure, how can the general population be any wiser? After all, his government appoints the chief medical officer for the scountry. In an article published in Mondays Toronto Star, the map of Ontario showed that as of Oct. 16, there were 74 diagnosed cases of the swine flu in the Northwestern Health Units region. In information published in the United States, the state of Minnesota appears to have a higher rate of swine flu diagnosis than other states. Today we know that younger children, pregnant women, and younger adults are more susceptible to the H1N1 flu. We also know from evidence that the flu never disappeared during the summer months, as is the expected norm. We know that frequent washing of hands, and sneezing into ones elbow or sleeve, will help reduce the risk of transmitting or catching the virus. Health departments also recommend that if you come down with the symptoms (i.e., fevers, chills, cough, sore throat, muscle aches, nausea, vomiting, or diarrhea), you should stay home from work or school. The H1N1 flu is the most active strain across North America. And it is expected to peak some time in the next few months. So I wonder, Should I go and sign the waiver to get the seasonal flu shot, and then get a second flu shot in early November, or should I follow the provinces guidelines and get the H1N1 in early November and wait until January to get the other shot?
