It’s not a question of if, but when. Up to 50 million died of the Spanish flu in 1918, and with increased global travel this next pandemic could be even worse. Most governments are preparing for the threat, but their measures are radically insufficient. The good news is that there are many self-help measures that can be taken to help prevent infection, and Beat the Flu tells you how. For instance: Use alcohol hand sanitizers, thaw frozen meat and poultry in the fridge not on the kitchen worktop, install a shoe dip on your doorstep, have a hot sauna to rid the body of viruses, bathe in a weak bleach solution to kill germs on your skin, Use UV light, with caution, to disinfect rooms, dishes, cutlery, towels or bedding-don’t share anything with anybody. Beat the Flu gives advice on how to care for loved one who has contracted the disease and puts forward an action plan for how to survive a breakdown in society following a severe outbreak.
