Swine Flu Second Wave Expected for Autumn

Health Experts Say October Will See Second Swine Flu Wave

As cases of swine flu slow both on island and across the UK medical experts have said we should brace ourselves for a second wave to hit in about October.

 

Staff in the Island’s health department are said to be readying themselves for a new influx of the virus.

 

Factors like children going back to school and the colder weather are believed to be the main reasons why such an increase is on the cards.

 

The message from the department of health remains the same, with strict hygiene guidelines in place.
