In response to the increased awareness of the new H1N1 influenza strain, commonly know as "Swine Flu," the Metro Public Health Department is providing posters that can be downloaded in Spanish: http://www.hon.org/AboutUs/index.php/docs/POSTER-SpanishPublic11x17.jpg
and English: http://www.hon.org/AboutUs/index.php/docs/POSTER-EnglishPublic11x17.jpg.

They illustrate everyday actions that can help prevent the spread of germs that cause respiratory illnesses like influenza. Posters are provided in both English and Spanish and are made to print on 11" x 17'' paper. Please distribute broadly.

Beyond the distribution of the provided poster, the Mayor's Office of Emergency Management has requested no action be taken by the nonprofit community at this time.

Metro has activated a partial Emergency Operations Center (EOC), and VOAD is being represented by its president, Brian Williams. They are closely monitoring this situation.

Please check the CNM blog daily for any new information from Metro Nashville government.
