Learn How To Take Precautions against the H1N1 Virus (Swine Flu)

As the H1N1 virus (swine flu) outbreak continues to grow in the US and internationally, the Director of the Indiana State Department of Health, Joe Wainscott, wants Hoosiers to know that "each of us can make a difference" to stop the spread of the illness.
