pray for those victims of swine flu

i want everyone to pray for the victims of this dreaded disease.
please please take precautions:

  1. Wash your hands frequently and thoroughly. Use soap and warm water when available; use hand sanitizer between hand washings.
  2. Avoid close contact with sick people. Close contact means getting within 6 feet of a sick person. If you must care for someone who is ill, minimize close contact.
  3. It's not known whether face masks protect against infection. If you use one, don't slack off on hand washing or avoiding close contact with sick people. Use the face mask properly and throw it away after use.
  4. Get your seasonal flu vaccine as soon as possible. It's safe, and it protects against the three seasonal flu bugs expected to circulate this fall and winter -- even though it won't protect against H1N1 swine flu.
