Keep Swine Flu in Perspective

By Elaine Grant on Friday, August 28, 2009.

The media this week have been reporting dire predictions about the effects of the second wave of swine flu this fall.

As kids are heading off to school, parents are reading reports that children and young people may be most affected by H1N1.

But public health officials are asking people to keep the news and predictions in perspective.

Dr. Jose Montero is New Hampshire's Director of Public Health.

He tell's NHPR's Elaine Grant that it is in our power to limit the damage from this new strain of flu.
