How does the swine flu spread?
Just like the regular flu, it spreads when a person who is infected with this virus: • Coughs or sneezes into the air and others get the virus in their eyes, nose, or mouth. • Coughs or sneezes on their hands and touches objects or surfaces that others touch and get to their eyes, nose or mouth. • Shares with another person an object with their spit on it, like a cigarette, a cup, spoon or fork. • Kisses another person on the face or lips.
