Most people go crazy when they start to show symptoms of a flu such as cough and a fever, thinking they have the dreaded swine flu. Well its not possible to detect the swine flu just from a few symptoms that appear unless a special test is carried out, so the best thing to do if you suspect that you have the virus is to try as much as possible to avoid contact with other human beings so you should stay indoors to avoid transmitting the H1N1 virus.
You should only get out of the house when you are going to seek medical assistance. Also when you have the swine flu you should make sure that you are prepared by having enough food supply as well as over the counter medicines and other related items like tissues so as to minimize unnecessary trips to public place and avoid spreading the virus.
