Preparing for the 2014-15 Respiratory Virus Season

Here is a good blog post from Texas Children's Hospital that summarizes how you can prepare your children for the next few months of respiratory viruses. 

Take home message:

-Keep hands clean

-Get the flu vaccine

-Monitor for more serious symptoms

-Cold medicines are largely ineffective and potentially dangerous.
