The deadly Swine Flu has reached the Indian shores following the global outbreak and now, claimed many lives. However, Swine Flu is certainly one of those diseased where an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. Here are ten tips for you to keep away from the pandemic..

1. Wash your hands frequently

Use the antibacterial soaps to cleanse your hands. Wash them often, at least 15 seconds and rinse with running water.

2. Get enough sleep

Try to get 8 hours of good sleep every night to keep your immune system in top flu-fighting shape.

3. Drink sufficient water

Drink 8 to10 glasses of water each day to flush toxins from your system and maintain good moisture and mucous production in your sinuses.

4. Boost your immune system

Keeping your body strong, nourished, and ready to fight infection is important in flu prevention. So stick with whole grains, colorful vegetables, and vitamin-rich fruits.

5. Keep informed

The government is taking necessary steps to prevent the pandemic and periodically release guidelines to keep the pandemic away. Please make sure to keep up to date on the information and act in a calm manner.

6. Avoid alcohol

Apart from being a mood depressant, alcohol is an immune suppressant that can actually decrease your resistance to viral infections like swine flu. So stay away from alcoholic drinks so that your immune system may be strong.

7. Be physically active

Moderate exercise can support the immune system by increasing circulation and oxygenating the body. For example brisk walking for 30-40 minutes 3-4 times a week will significantly perk up your immunity.

8. Keep away from sick people

Flu virus spreads when particles dispersed into the air through a cough or sneeze reach someone else’s nose. So if you have to be around someone who is sick, try to stay a few feet away from them and especially, avoid physical contact.

9. Know when to get help

Consult your doctor if you have a cough and fever and follow their instructions, including taking medicine as prescribed.

10. Avoid crowded areas

Try to avoid unnecessary trips outside..

Do take care of yourself because you are precious..

Have heard this from couple of colleagues and friends that IPL2-2009 is not doing so good and is also not attracting much crowd..

Reason being its happening out of India..

So thought of putting some analysis on IPL 2008-2009 TV Ratings as of now..

All the data is been sourced from TAM..

Check out the TVRs last year, I mean during first seven matches of IPL-2008:

and below are the ratings of first seven matches of IPL2-2009.

Thus if you’ll see, it clearly denotes that the charm of IPL is decreasing, during the IPL-2008 the rating of first match was 8.21% while for IPL-2009 it was 5.55% only..

Which clearly iterates that this season because of what so ever the reason is, the charm is not there..!!

ShortForms:

MI    Mumbai Indians RCB    Royal Challenge Banaglore DC    Decan Chargers Hyderabad KKR    Kolkata Knight Riders CSK    Chennai Super King RR    Rajasthan Royals DD    Dare Devils Delhi KP    Kings XI Punjab

Will post more on this soon..
