			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>As we know <strong>Influenza A</strong> is a disease caused by a new virus (called H1N1) that could affect the entire population, with increased risk of complications between 15-50 years.</p>
<p>Being a new virus have no defenses against it so that this epidemic has been declared by the World Health Organization (WHO) pandemic as it affects more than 100 countries worldwide simultaneously.</p>
<p>The Ministry of Health of The Nation has taken as a precautionary measure the advancement of the winter holidays for children attending primary and secondary schools, in order to reduce infections.</p>
<p>Now the big question that now arises is how do I send the kids to school?</p>
<p>Well, for starters we talk with our children about what prevention measures to be taken to avoid creating fear and strengthening healthy hygiene habits.</p>
<p>Remember that the flu virus is spread from person to person through secretions contained in &#8220;droplets&#8221; which is spread by talking, coughing or sneezing (with another person less than 1.5 meters away) or entering hands or contact with surfaces contaminated with these secretions (touching eyes, nose or mouth). It is very important that children know what the routes of infection and generate in them hygiene to avoid contagion, not only Influenza A but also of many other diseases.</p>
<p><span id="more-3"></span></p>
<p>What care should take children for back to school?</p>
<p>Wash hands often with soap and water. Always remember that washing should last 30 &#8220;and should generate approximately abundant foam. For the youngest is useful to sing a song while washing. Once dry hands with disposable towels and close the faucet with the paper. It is very important to emphasize washing especially after using the bathroom, returning from recess, before and after eating some food, etc..</p>
<p>When you want to cough or sneeze, cover your mouth and nose with a tissue or the inner angle of the elbow, and wash hands immediately. A practical and economical is to buy several packages of disposable handkerchiefs to avoid the use of handkerchiefs where the virus can be retained by encouraging the breeding ground.</p>
<p>Avoid touching eyes, nose or mouth with dirty hands. Explain to children should be placed a &#8220;helmet&#8221; imaginary which would avoid the entry of the virus in the mucous membranes (eye, nose and mouth).<br />
Do not greet him with kisses and shake hands (especially teenagers).<br />
Do not share cups, cutlery, food and beverages.</p>
<p>What care we take in?</p>
<p>In addition to personal hygiene must maintain a proper household hygiene. To accomplish this objective should be cleaned regularly with bleach the different environments at home, toys, pacifiers, etc..<br />
The bleach is a disinfectant too noble to be used in diluted form. Always remember that like any cleaning product should be out of reach of children.</p>
<p>Can I strengthen my body&#8217;s defenses?</p>
<p>Nutrients play an essential role for our system&#8217;s defenses or immune system. Maintaining a healthy and varied diet provides the necessary tools so that our body can defend itself not only of the Influenza A virus, but other common diseases during the winter.</p>
<p>Some useful tips when eating:</p>
<ul>
<li> Perform the 4 meals. Especially breakfast in children, as it not only provides essential nutrients for our immunity but also allow children to pay attention and improve their school performance.</li>
<li>Perform a varied diet. Avoid especially snacks of low nutritional value.</li>
<li>Eating fruits and vegetables. Variously eat provides us with the amount of vitamins and minerals that our body needs every day to avoid having to buy pharmaceuticals.</li>
</ul>
