The most current information on the H1N1 virus is that it has been declared a global pandemic by the World Health Organization. Symptoms of the flu include fever, coughing, sore throat, runny or stuffy nose, body aches, fatigue and headaches. It can also lead to vomiting and diarrhea. People who have underlying health conditions such as asthma, diabetes, heart disease, or lung disease are at higher risk for complications from the flu. There is no specific treatment for the flu, but rest, fluids, and over-the-counter medications like ibuprofen can help relieve symptoms.
