With the flu outbreaks happening so strongly in North America this year (its all over the news today on CNN), and with the obvious spread to our Caribbean shores with the increased tourist travel, the local health professionals are becoming very astute at heading off the worst of the symptoms.
Two great local doctors, Dr Grant (957-3770) or Dr Foster (957-9307) are able to see you, but at the first detection of symptoms, a quick trip to any one of the local pharmacies may be advisable (HiLo Plaza, BurgerKing Plaza, Valuemaster Plaza, White Swan Plaza). From all the folks we know who have been effected, the most advised medications and treatments are available over the counter and the pharmacists have become experts in dealing with these early symptoms.
In addition to the common advise of washing hands, not sneezing or coughing on others (or allowing others to do so) - please - no passing the "dutchie pon de lef han side...."
