Swine Influenza, also called swine flu, is a respiratory disease of pigs caused by Type A Influenza viruses. Outbreaks of swine flu happen regularly in pigs. People do not normally get swine flu, but human infections can and do happen. Most commonly, human cases of swine flu happen in people who are around pigs, but swine flu viruses can spread from person to person, too. A type of swine flu never seen before in humans is now in the U.S. and other countries. Here is some information.

What is Public Health?

Public Health is the science of protecting and improving the health of communities through education, promotion of healthy lifestyles, and research for disease and injury prevention. Public Health addresses the health of the community as a whole rather than the health of an individual. Public Health leaders work continuously to prevent disease and to improve the health of our residents and visitors!
