The Perry County Health Department is actively preparing to meet a potential avian flu outbreak. We have developed a plan that we will be using to serve the citizens of Perry County in the event that a pandemic passes this way.

The federal Department of Health and Human Services provides a "One-stop access to U.S. Government avian and pandemic flu information." Avian Flu (This is a really good up to date link!)

We also have a short presentation that we are willing to provide to you or your organization. This program discusses the potential that exists and provides suggestions for individual preparations. If you would like to schedule a speaker for this program, please contact Steve Holekamp at the Perry County Health Department (740 342-5179 ext. 235). sholkamp@odh.ohio.gov
