Share with you a very useful advice from a doctor in a private hospital in K.L.
以下是一名私人医院医生的忠告，与你共享之。




When children have fever, the doctor will prescribe the fever medicine to consume either in 4 or 6 hours interval. I think all of you know very well on this.
每当孩童发烧时，医生都会给发烧药，4或6小时服用一次。我想大家都非常清楚。


Normally the fever will go down after taken the medicine, and it will come back after 3 or 6 hours. But if it for H1N1 infection, the fever will not be going down after taking the medicine and it will stay at high temperature for hours.
通常服药后，会退烧，3或6小时后再发烧。如果是A流感，不但不会退烧，还会持续发高烧。


And if this condition (sustained high temperature for hours) lasts for 48 hours, then the possibility of H1N1 infection will be very high. For this case, doctor will straight away give the patient the H1N1 antiviral treatment, i.e. Tamiflu treatment for a period of 7 days.
 如果持续发高烧48小时，患上A流感的机会就非常高。医生就会直接给7天抗流感的药(Tamiflu)。
