Queensland has now moved to "protect" phase to manage the outbreak of H1N1 Influenza (also known as Human Swine Influenza). Under this new "protect" phase in Term 3, Queensland will have the flexibility to close single schools or classrooms to students in special circumstances, for example in remote areas where the community is otherwise free of human swine flu.
Restrictions on study tours, or students entering Queensland from areas of concern including Mexico, the United States of America, Canada, Panama, Japan, Chile and Argentina or students that are returning from Victoria no longer apply.
The symptoms of swine flu are similar to those of seasonal influenza, including: fever, cough, sore throat, runny or blocked nose, body aches, headache, chills and fatigue. Preventative measures include:
- washing hands frequently with soap and water or using an alcohol based hand gel
- washing hands prior to touching eyes, nose or mouth
- when coughing or sneezing, cover the mouth and nose with tissues which should be disposed
Updates will be available on the Department of Education and Training website www.det.qld.gov.au and on the Redlands College website. If you have any questions about symptoms or illness, please call 13 HEALTH (13 432 548) 24 hours a day, seven days a week or contact your regular health practitioner. |
