According to the CDC:

Flu activity is increasing in most of the United States with nearly half of all states reporting widespread influenza activity. So far, most flu is 2009 H1N1 flu (sometimes called “swine flu”). CDC expects both 2009 H1N1 flu and seasonal flu to cause illness, hospital stays and deaths this season. CDC has recommendations on who should get vaccinated against seasonal flu and
2009 H1N1 flu.

As an extra precaution it’s a great idea to purchase items that will help reduce the chances of germ-spreading. One idea is to purchase washable keyboards and other technical equipment from Wetkeys.com. This way, you can keep what was once a breeding ground for germs, a sanitary area.
