The Muscle Couple is not immune or unknowing to the latest current events.  

Evidently, there is a potential pandemic flu outbreak and the CDC states there is no way to stop the spread at the current rate due to the disease’s ability to move from person to person.   

Not to worry.  

There are a couple of steps you can take right now to maximize your ability to prevent and even fight the contagion.

• Stay away from Crowded places. (Malls-Shopping Centers-Arenas-Airports etc)
• Carry antiseptic wipes with you and wipe down everything you come into contact with
• Wear a mask in public lightly dipped in Eucalpytus or Tea Trea Oil(you can find these on Ebay-Home Depot-OSH and many Medical Equipment Supply stores)
• Try and get your Doctor to write an RX for Tamilflu or Relenza (so you have it stockpiled just in case)
• Have at least 2-3 weeks worth of water, protein powder(formula like Muscle Milk)a portable generator, medicines and a battery powered radio on hand in your house(you should always have this anyways)

There is no reason to panic.  But there is also good reason to be vigilant and prepared should this become a significant world wide epidemic.  It’s always better to be safe than sorry.  

Best of luck to everyone this week.  Pay attention and warn your loved ones and friends to take the same precautions.
