CAIR Asks U.S. Muslim Prayer Leaders to Urge Swine Flu Precautions
Date:4/29/2009

er flu prevention tips provided by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), which include:

* Cover your nose and mouth with a tissue when you cough or sneeze. Throw the tissue in the trash after you use it.

* Wash your hands often with soap and water, especially after you cough or sneeze. Alcohol-based hands cleaners are also effective.

* Avoid touching your eyes, nose or mouth. Germs spread that way.

* Try to avoid close contact with sick people.

* If you get sick, CDC recommends that you stay home from work or school and limit contact with others to keep from infecting them.

CAIR, in consultation with Islamic scholars, is also suggesting that imams and mosque officials consider taking other preventive actions recommended by the CDC when swine flu is confirmed in a community, including: 1.

Cancellation of classes in Islamic schools should be considered if there is a confirmed or a suspected case of swine flu in the school population. 3. Gatherings at mosques, even otherwise-mandatory Friday congregational prayers, should be temporarily cancelled if there is a risk of spreading infection.
