SUBJECT: Flu Pandemic Policy (CC-020)

1. During the 1900’s there were three (3) Flu Pandemics. Now we may be faced with yet another outbreak. Attached is some general information for you and your family to help prevent the transmission and spread of illness.

2. If at anytime you feel ill (i.e. Nausea/Vomiting, cough/ runny nose with fever, ect.) Please contact your supervisor and inform them of the issue and why you will not be attending the meeting and/ or activity. Upon your return please provide a family and/ or Doctor’s note for your absence per Squadron Policy 6. If you are ill and have the possibility of a contagious illness please do not come to the unit and/ or activity.

3. If there is a Squadron cancellation the Commander will make the proper notification and your supervisor will contact you by use of the SQF6 Phone List. Please keep your supervisor informed of chances to that list so it can stay current. Furthermore if there is a confirmed case of a Contagious Disease the Squadron reserves the right to contact and advise the other unit members and families. Also the Group and Wing Commander will be informed per Ohio Wing directives.

4. All personnel are to attempt to avoid physical contact when possible. If contact is necessary all personnel are required to use proper hand washing techniques.
