This is a Public Service Announcement regarding Influenza from the Philadelphia Department of Public Health.
You can prevent yourself and your family from getting and spreading influenza with these simple tips:
- Sneeze or cough into a tissue or your sleeve (not your hand).
- Keep your hands away from your face (and don't touch your mouth, nose and eyes).
- Wash your hands with soap or an alcohol-based hand sanitizer often.
- Keep frequently used surfaces clean (like door knobs, countertops and desks).
- Stay home from work or school if you are sick.
For more flu information, visit the Philadelphia Department of Public Health at www.phila.gov/health or the Pennsylvania Department of Health H1N1 website at www.h1n1inpa.com.

Edward J. Vassallo, Ready Coordinator for Philadelphia's Office of Emergency Management, encourages citizens to sign up for ReadyNotifyPA, the region's emergency text and email alert system.
When situations arise in Philadelphia that may affect you and your family, ReadyNotifyPA alerts you quickly via email or text. Be among the first to find out and stay informed during an emergency. To sign up, simply text PHILA to 411911 or log on to www.readynotifypa.org.
Alerts are free; however, your cellular provider may charge for text messaging.
You may even choose to get other alerts, such as severe weather, transportation delays, and health alerts.
ReadyNotifyPA is also available in Bucks, Chester, Delaware and Montgomery counties. So, if you spend time in more than one area you can sign up for alerts from multiple counties.
Encourage your family, friends, neighbors and community members to sign up for these important emergency alerts.
ReadyNotifyPA is a Ready Region service provided by the Southeastern Pennsylvania Regional Task Force and the emergency management coordinators of Bucks, Chester, Delaware, Montgomery and Philadelphia counties.
