Despite Swine Flu receiving comparatively less media attention to 2009, the World Health Organisation (WHO) reported on 22 January 2010 a rise in the number of deaths to approximately 14,142, which amounts to an increase of 588 within the week. In Europe, it has been reported that at least 3,099 people have died from the illness. The Asian region has reportedly seen at least 2,877 deaths.
In the vast majority of cases, the symptoms are relatively mild; however, this can still cause problems for organisations that have to deal with employee absence. Small businesses often feel the brunt when reduced staffing levels impact upon earnings. The greatest problems will occur if the virus mutates, thereby causing a much more severe set of symptoms.
Thankfully, by taking precautionary measures and investing in adequate protective equipment, the risk can be minimised. Ensuring employee cooperation is also essential to effective containment.
It is recommended people follow the advice of The Health Protection Agency, by always washing hands and following respiratory hygiene practices. A pro-active approach has demonstrated to be the most effective method of combating Swine Flu in the workplace and home.
