PTA Resources on Swine Flu
PTA, along with public agencies across the country, has been working over the past year to educate parents and schools about the potential spread of influenza through the Let’s Fight Flu Together! initiative. Swine flu is a unique strain of influenza, and standard influenza precautions should be applied. PTA is not an expert in this area, but we would like to take this opportunity to share with you several resources from the CDC that may be helpful in communicating appropriate Swine Flu responses to your local PTAs.
