The Novel H1N1 (Swine Flu) and MPS

Medical experts are concerned that this type of flu might make a comeback in fall with more severe symptoms. Parents and children should not fear this because there are ways to protect your loved ones.

• When a Novel H1N1 vaccine becomes available; please see that children get the immunization. It is possible that swine flu vaccinations will be provided at some school sites. MPS will provide details when they are available.
• Find out where you could receive food assistance if your child’s school is closed and you have no access to school meals.
