Flu Precautions

H1N1 influenza has been circulating in the United States since spring 2009. Because the flu virus spreads most easily in fall and winter, we expect to have H1N1 flu, as well as the usual seasonal flu, on the Norwich campus during that time. The Norwich Incident Command Team has been working since last spring on a plan to deal with a flu outbreak. We plan to do everything possible to promote the health and minimize the effect of flu on our students, faculty, and staff. We are following Center for Disease Control (CDC) guidelines and are promoting preventive measures such as hand washing, cough etiquette, and self-isolation of those who are ill.
