From the CCR&R office: "The flu season has begun. It's begun early, and nearly all of the influenza that is being reported is the novel H1N1 virus. Children and young adults are still being hit the hardest,. H1N1 is being reported in all 50 states. There are 21 states that are reporting widespread activity."

The flu is definitely here and not going anywhere. I am going to try to post some helpful information for my daycare families regarding the status of the flu in our community, steps to be taken regarding keeping your children home from daycare and any other helpful information as I continue to receive it from the CCR&R as well as from the state websites and other helpful sites.

Thank you to you all for keeping a close eye on your kids so far and encouraging lots of hand washing and other healthy habits.
