According to him, in this period a person and so faced with various viruses that are in the air. In addition, the vaccine will always allocate centrally from the Ministry of Health.
"But this year we have not even begun to vaccinate health care workers because they do not get the vaccine," - said Borisovich.
Also, he said, that the vaccine, which is in pharmacies, may not match the type of influenza that circulated today. In fact, from what is now suffering from Lvov, has not yet been studied, reports ZIK.

RESPIRATORY INFECTIONS


In addition to trivial infections like colds and flu, are caused by different viruses that can occur in the upper and lower respiratory tract bacterial infection and more serious diseases. If the body's own defense is too weak or the number of invading bacteria is too high, there is an infection that is manifested by the typical symptoms of redness, warmth, swelling, pain and loss of function. Depending on the site of infection occur in the upper respiratory tract infections of the ears (otitis), the tonsils (tonsillitis = angina), the paranasal sinuses (sinusitis), throat (pharyngitis) or larynx (laryngitis) on. In the area of the lower respiratory tract can cause inflammation of the trachea and bronchi (bronchitis) or even lead to lung inflammation (pneumonia).

Besides viruses and bacteria, although there are also fungi, protozoa (single cell) and other microorganisms as infectious agents, but these occur on relatively rare. Infection takes place in respiratory infections usually by droplet infection, ie the germs of a sick person by sneezing, coughing or speaking with fine droplets through the air and spun by others absorbed through the respiratory tract. Therefore, it is advisable to avoid, especially in the wet cold season, larger crowds in small spaces.

Depending on the type of infection can cause the following symptoms:
* Sniffles.
* Cough.
* Hoarseness.
* Sore throat.
* Fever.
* Head and body aches.
* Ear pain.
* Chills.
* Fatigue.
Most of them are in acute respiratory infections by disease, but there is also a chronic course, often such as bronchitis. Characterized by a chronic infection is the constant presence of the infectious stimulus, with an occasional, more or less severe flare-ups of symptoms. This does not pass acute infection into a chronic condition, they must be adequately addressed; a prescribed antibiotic must be taken long enough (usually by using up a box).

What can you do?
* Drink plenty! (Not too hot and too spicy, mineral water, hot tea ...)
* Physical protection, fever and bed rest, plenty of sleep.
* The-counter medications, such as for example decongestant nose drops, paracetamol tablets or suppositories for pain and fever, cough and throat lozenges for disinfecting, analgesic or moistening of the throat to relieve the discomfort.
* Inhaling with chamomile tea or essential oils, possibly before the nose drops.
* Mouthwash / gargle with warm chamomile or sage tea or warm salt water (1 / 4 teaspoon salt to 1 glass of water).
Fives * / rubbing e.g. with liniment or balm with essential oils.
* Room air moisten, e.g. Hang wet towels or obscure essential oils.
* No smoking (with).

What your doctor can do?
* The physician can determine the extent and cause of the infection.
* Is this a bacterial infection, the doctor will prescribe an appropriate antibiotic to combat the pathogen.
* Viral infections can only alleviate the symptoms and the spread of infection and secondary infections can be prevented.

Prevention:
* Strengthen the immune system.
* To keep sick people apart.
* Pay attention, especially in the wet cold season appropriate clothing (not too light but not too warm).

What can I do about flu

The flu season is almost here, so what natural ways can we protect ourself. Firstly always seek advice from your GP before considering natural medicine. Complimentary therapy can be useful in helping to protect yourself from the flu, or quickening the recovery.

At the first signs of flu take 20-30 drops of elderberry tincture three to four times a day for three days. Elderberry has been used for centuries to fight viruses, and one research study found that people who took it recovered from flu significantly faster than those who did not.

Naturpaths recommend Oscillococcinum, a homeopathic remedy for reducing the severity of flu symptoms. It is available online and in some health food shops. Be sure to use it within 12-48 hours of the first appearance of your symptoms.

You could also try N-acetylcysteine (NAC), a form of the amino acid cysteine. It helps to thin and loosen mucus and reduce flu symptoms. Take one 600mg dose three times a day, and of course my own favorite vitamin c in higher doses.

Supplement that can help prevent the super bug and cancerous tumours.

Today I have started taking odourless Garlic capsules 1,000mg, in the hope that they will help lower my blood pressure and protect in heart health. The other reason I am taking Garlic is to help protect myself from viruses and infection such as flu, which is going around at the moment.

Garlic is one of the most popular alternative medicines it contains a powerful sulphur compound Allicin which was found to kill the so called super bug (MR SA), which is resistant to antibiotics.
Garlic is also useful to prevent heart attacks and strokes, and also quite beneficial in inhibiting the growth of cancerous tumours. It has a strong anti-viral and anti-fungal action.

My father-in-law suffers from diabetes and I understand that Garlic will also help this condition, so he intends to supplement his diet with Garlic.

I would like to know what the maximum dosage of Garlic is?. Do interested members know the answer to this question. Please add comments below.
