other side of the door. Turned out to be a small, 6-yeargirl, in dirty rags. And in the room beyond, her mother, unable even to answer the door. The 35-year-old woman showed the ghastly gray pallor and rotting teeth of a hard-

Lending a voice to ‘theater of the mind’ Radio personality Riemer grew up, got his start in Auburn BY SHAWN SKAGER sskager@auburn-reporter.com

For more than 30 years, Marty Riemer has brought a smooth, comfortable and steady voice to radio stations throughout the Puget Sound.

Riemer began his on-air career as a precocious teenager on Green River Community College’s KGRG 89.9 FM. He has gone on to sustain a presence as a popular personality on local stations, including stints at

KZOK, KJR, KXRX and most recently, KMTT The Mountain 103.7 FM, where he occupies the 2-6 p.m. drive-time slot. Along the way, Riemer has witnessed the changing face of the medium, from the decline of AM [ more RIEMER page 10 ]

It was a lost battle in The Forgotten War. Yet Auburn’s Larry Doll remembers the horrific, frontline firefight all too well. Even now, more than 60 years later, he struggles to describe the carnage. “The 6th crack division of North Koreans was there, and they just sucked us into a tunnel,” Doll recalled of the fierce battle played out on the Korean Peninsula on July 27, 1950. “It was (hell). … It was an ambush.” Doll – a wide-eyed, frightened teen in the U.S. Army infantry – somehow survived

Day with Sam’s A special group of men and women recently visited Sam's Club in the Auburn SuperMall to make pizza, work the photo lab, greet shoppers, and gather and line up carts. It was all part of Disability Mentoring Day, celebrated every October. It is a nationwide effort to promote career development for students with disabilities through hands-on career exploration.

Employers also gained an increased awareness that people with disabilities represent an overlooked talent pool. "This is the second year we've done this, and it's been great," said Tonya Clark, Sam's Club community involvement director. "It's a great opportunity for them to get some job experience and to educate our employees about how to work with people with disabilities."

A ROAD CLOSURE begins Sunday at 6 a.m. on the two northbound lanes of C Street Southwest, just South of 15th Street Southwest. A Boeing contractor will perform work related to the rebuilding of the railroad crossing. The work is expected to start at 6 a.m. Sunday and continue until finished, approximately at 5 a.m. Monday. Traffic will be diverted through the remaining southbound lane, alternating the traffic with a flagger.

[ CENTER from page 1 ] Cameron started showing up weekly at the apartment with staff and volunteers in tow, bringing lunch, talking to the woman. Born into a motorcycle gang, the woman said, she had been abused from day one. Her boyfriend was a drug dealer. “We just started loving on her and letting her know she was worth a lot more than that,� Cameron said. “Finally, one day, when she realized that her life didn’t have to be like that, she cried out, ‘I can’t live like this anymore! Can you help me out?’� The SSDC got the woman into a family recovery program in Tacoma. Three years later, drug free, she has a job, her own place — and her little girl attends Auburn schools, no longer wearing rags but bright new clothes. That is just one of the many, many success stories of the local branch of the Los Angeles-based outreach center, which has not only helped pull people up from poverty but out of gangs, too. “It’s about taking the time to get to know people, building relationships with people, finding out what their needs are, how you can help them, pulling resources in, whether it be from business, church, secular, government, whatever,� Cameron said. “We’re just trying to take care of some of the needs.� Since 2006, SSDC has done most of its work not in warm office buildings but on the streets, in the neighborhoods, and in the community centers and schools of Federal Way and Auburn, working there with low-income

people, gang members, and more. “It’s not just one hurt, mainly our outreach is to the homeless and lowincome people,� Cameron said. “We look at the need, and Cameron if we can’t meet it, we refer them to people that can. We look for people that are hurting in whatever way. We work with Auburn Youth Resources and with DSHS, which has just started funding us. We are connected throughout the city. We work with the mayor, with the elderly, with retirement homes, and we have an after-school program for kids.� Here are some of SSDC’s programs: t 5FFO OJHIU PČ FST UIF DPNNVOJUZ T young people a safe hangout, where they can play video games and other activities and interact with positive role models. t 4BUVSEBZ $JUZ )FMQ &BDI 4BUVS day, volunteer teams take more than 400 lunches to low-income housing areas, helping with the practical and spiritual needs of the families with which they interact. t )BOE JO )BOE $IJME 4QPOTPS ship: offers community members the chance to sponsor a child in their own area for $30 a month.

The outreach team identifies natural and spiritual needs as it interacts with youth and families. The organization estimates it gives away about $350,000 in groceries a year. The organization’s annual budget of $100,000 comes from churches, businesses and community organizations. Cameron himself is paid very little. He has another job, as owner of Auto Sport Imports, about a half-mile south of Sea-Tac Airport. This week, the organization graduated a group of teens from a nine-week program called Dreams 2 Realities. “Basically, what we did here is we went to Auburn High School and we sat down with counselors and told them ‘we are looking for teens you’ve given up on, teens who’ve been kicked out of school, have felonies, show violent behavior’, that kind of thing,� Cameron said. He picked up a photo, showing a girl in a cast. “She was not in a gang, but she rode along with one of the gang members, right here in Auburn. She dissed the gang somehow, and they shot her and threw her out of her car and left her for dead,� Cameron said. “This guy right here.� Cameron said, pointing at the photo, “I came in here one day, and Michael, our outreach worker, said, ‘Rick, you’ve to come here and see this.’ The girl and the head of the gang that did that to her were standing side by side.

He sought a trade, an education in the Army, but what the innocent and naive teenager got was an abrupt, intense transformation into a hardened soldier. “I was a boy,â€? Doll said. “I came back this man.â€? He was a survivor, not a hero. Equipped with a 15-pound BAR (Browning Automatic Rifle), Doll was with one of the first units to enter the Korean theater. The freshly installed and inexperienced 29th was sent in to prevent a major enemy advance from taking the vital south port of Pusan. They had no idea what they were stepping into. “We got there and we thought, ‘We’re taking care of this real quick,’ “ Doll recalled. But the civilians knew different. “They knew more than we did,â€? Doll said. “They said a lot of you boys are not coming back.â€? Following the failed mission came the chaotic withdrawal, leading to hundreds of casualties. “It was sad,â€?

We were very unprepared.� Destroyed after its first engagement, the 29th Infantry was disbanded and merged with other units as the North Korean forces advanced and attacked U.S. positions to the east.

Push to China Doll stayed in the fight, joining other outfits in the allies’ eventual push up the peninsula to the Yalu River and the Manchurian border. The prolonged fighting left a weary Doll pessimistic. “I knew I wasn’t coming home,� he said. “It was just like a blank wall. They were killing us every day. You prayed every time you put your foot down, let me tell you.� U.S. forces eventually were forced to retreat as Chinese Communists joined North Koreans to launch a successful counterattack in November 1950. After months of heavy fighting, the center of the conflict was returned to the 38th parallel, where it remained for the rest of the war. Doll was wounded in action, struck in the leg by a Chinese burp gun, and discharged. He came home in early 1951. At war, Doll witnessed its ravages and the emotional toll. He vividly recalls one of his first encounters with an enemy solider. “When he come at me, I thought to myself, ‘Why can’t I just walk up and shake hands with him?’ He looked as if he didn’t want to be there, either. He looked like he was 10 years old.�

Doll was a young soldier, fearful but focused to do his duty. “It was a job,� he said. “It’s what we had to do.� Wedged between World War II and the Vietnam War, the Korean War goes largely unnoticed. Doll understands this. “You were proud to be an American to be there. You thought it was your duty until later on, politics started coming in,� Doll said. Many Korean veterans returned home to indifference. While recovering from his wounds at the Madigan Army Medical Center, Doll went out for coffee and pie at a nearby spot. A man approached Doll, who was dressed in full uniform, his leg in a cast. “He asked me, ‘Did you break your leg skiing?’ “ Doll recalled. Over time, the country has grown to recognize The Forgotten War and honor those men and women who were a part of it. About 122,000 Washington soldiers served in Korea, 532 of them were killed. A Korean War memorial has been established in Olympia. Other memorials have been created in other cities. The war should not be forgotten, Doll insisted. And the man of today hasn’t forgotten the many teenagers of the past who bravely fought and lost their lives. “We served and for some of us, survived it,� he said. “Every new day is one that has been extended to me. I am truly thankful for that.�

THE FIBER OF YOUR LIVES The average American eats only about 15 grams of fiber daily, which is far less than the current daily recommendation of 25 grams for women and 38 grams for men. If you find yourself wondering what the big deal is about eating fiber, you may be surprised to know that a recent study suggests that eating more fiber could lead to longer life. According to the largest study of its kind, which included more than 388,000 adults ranging in age from 50 to 71, high-fiber diets lower the risk of heart disease, infections, and respiratory illnesses, and cancer deaths in men. The strongest overall benefit was derived from diets high in fiber from grains. So, how about oatmeal for breakfast? At PARKSIDE RETIREMENT COMMUNITY, we understand the importance of a healthy diet when it comes to seniors. We serve nutritious and delicious meals and snacks that are geared to provide the recommended vitamins and minerals. To discover more about our offerings, reach us today at (253) 939-1332. We will arrange a meeting and tour of our unique senior community, conveniently located at 2902 I Street, N.E. We have been locally owned and operated since 1972. We look forward to meeting you! We’re here for you! P.S. High-fiber diets probably lower the cancer risk in men more than in women because men are more likely to succumb to cancers related to diet, such as esophageal cancer.

EDITOR’S NOTE

?

“Do you like the system of voting by mail?”

The rock in the park means something special to RaeLyn Clark. It rests as a monument along the edge of the large, sunken skateboard bowl at Brannan Park, a second home to RaeLyn’s late son. A plaque made in tribute to Dwight Clark is embedded in the rock bench, the boy’s photos facing the bowl as if the skateboard whiz were overlooking all who came to use the park. “Dwight lived at the skate park, and now he can continue being here,” the woman said last Sunday as family and friends gathered to dedicate the plaque and celebrate what would have been her son’s 20th birthday. “People can remember who he is and what he did here. The rock is a place for boys to sit and be close to him. “Primarily, I wanted him to physically watch all his skaters, forever.” If only his friends could have watched over and protected RaeLyn’s boy on Sept. 26, 2010 – the day he disappeared. Dwight, an 18-year-old freshman at Western Washington University, was last seen leaving an off-campus party in Bellingham around 2 a.m. that Sunday. Dwight’s car remained parked outside of his dormitory. His bank account hadn’t been touched. And despite having sent 6,000 text messages in the weeks leading up to his disappearance, Dwight’s cell phone made no more calls. Authorities, family and volunteers conducted an exhaustive search, but the Coast Guard pulled Dwight’s lifeless body from Bellingham Bay 10 days later. The Whatcom County medical examiner ruled Dwight’s death an accidental drowning. An autopsy revealed that he had been legally drunk, with traces of marijuana present in his body. There were no signs of Dwight Clark trauma. Family and friends say Dwight was a good kid, always polite, smiling, laid back. An honors student at Auburn High School, he had four college offers. He had no known history of drug or alcohol abuse, no signs of depression. He was responsible, accountable, never skipped a day of school, called his mom daily. But on Sept. 26, 2010, things went terribly wrong. “Perhaps he did the typical first-year college, first-weekend binge drinking,” RaeLyn said, Mark Klaas

Osborne prepared to do the job No one is better prepared than Wayne Osborne to become an Auburn City councilmember. I serve on the Auburn Planning Commission with Wayne. He is prepared to discuss the issues at every meeting, his questions are always pertinent, and he bases his decisions on facts. Wayne is respected by the members of the commission and City staff alike. By nature he is a very positive, forward-thinking individual and willingly listens to people’s concerns. In addition to the Planning Commission, he serves on the Airport Advisory Board. Ask anyone who has worked with Wayne and they will tell you he has a good working knowledge of the City and will make the right decisions. Three years ago Wayne started attending Auburn City Council, Planning and Community Development Committee, Planning Commission, City Advisory and ad hoc committee meetings to prepare to become an effective City councilmember. Today he has attended over 250 meetings, is well versed in our local issues and opportunities, and is ready to lead. His diligence and preparation will enable him to contribute immediately as a councilmember. Wayne Osborne has prepared himself well to be your next councilmember, and I encourage you to vote for him.

Holman is right choice for Council First of all, let me say that nobody asked me to write this letter. It is written because of my concerns, as a longtime Auburn City councilman who has been elected to the Council five consecutive times, that voters may not be fully aware of the important differences between City Council candidates Virginia Haugen and John Hayes Holman. This election offers an opportunity to replace an ineffective Council member with one who will help keep Auburn as the place we want to live. Virginia Haugen has a combative, sometimes rude, approach to problem solving that has worked well for her as a community activist, but does not work well in the role of a City councilmember. Her scattered and obscure thinking process and her consistent negativity often confuses the Council’s work. While some people are of the opinion that it is good to have one of the seven Council members be a “pot-stirrer,” I can assure you from my long experience with several coun-

cilmembers who have “stirred the pot”, that it is not beneficial for the taxpayers. It diverts the Council’s attention from other more important matters, and in the long run, delivers less service at higher cost. John Hayes Holman, on the other hand, has shown during his long career in law enforcement and a lifetime of living in Auburn, that he is a very deliberate, fact-focused and compassionate problem solver. He presents positive ideas, and he also strives to understand and address opposing views in a positive way. I hope you will join me in voting for John Hayes Holman for Auburn City Council. – Rich Wagner

Haugen has voice of the people I have lived in Auburn for more than 30 years and worked here for 23 years. Back in the ’70s and ’80s it was a lovely, bright, thriving community. With lots of businesses on Main Street and elsewhere with friendly people working in them. We had a choice of more then one jewelry store and clothing store. We had JC Penney, Rottles, Kaspers; Weese’s Jewelry, a drug store, a dime store, restaurants, taverns, several car dealerships, just to name a few. We had a community that took pride in where they lived. We had good roads and we weren’t charged an arm and a leg for our water and sewer. And we weren’t being gouged to death for TV cable by Comcast. [ more LETTERS page 8 ]

[ LETTERS from page 7 ] Downtown Auburn now is nothing that I’m proud of, and it’s just dying on the vine. We need to stop the mayor from squandering our hard-earned money on frivolous things and concentrate on what is really needed in Auburn, and live and run our town within its means. What is his main agenda, anyway? I don’t think that Virginia Haugen is being negative at all when she speaks her mind on what’s wrong with Auburn. It obviously needs fixing. You’d have to be blind not to see it. Our mayor and his supporters seem to be looking through rose-colored glasses. Auburn is in trouble and needs a strong voice for the people to set it on the right path again. On Nov. 8, please join me and cast your vote for Virginia Haugen, the voice of the people. She’s the right choice.

Baunach is clear choice for schools I urge voters to support Anne Baunach for Position 4 on the Auburn School Board because providing excellent education for our children is truly Anne’s passion. She has put this passion into action over the past 15 years through her leadership, work and volunteer activities in our community. Anne’s strong leadership skills are well known throughout our school district because of the numerous committees she has chaired and co-chaired and education programs she has helped support. Anne doesn’t just offer up an idea, she helps makes it happen. For example, she spearheaded the formation of Auburn Schools Foundation. This organization has been a longtime dream of Anne’s. Her efforts in developing it for our community will bring much needed future funding and support for educational programs

throughout our schools. Anne’s employment also has supported education excellence, including her work at Green River Community College and at Thrive by Five, the publicprivate partnership that focuses on early childhood education. Because of her in-depth understanding of early learning, higher education and extensive volunteer experience, Anne is truly a “go to” person for information about an education issue. She takes the time to fully learn about the programs she supports and to gain a complete understanding of their impact on students. Anne has been recognized for her volunteer efforts, including the STAR Award from Auburn School District, Ruby Award from Soroptimist International of Auburn, and Alumnus of the Year Award from the Leadership Institute of South Puget Sound and many more. She continues to work hard with a “roll up your sleeves” dedication that inspires others and gets

things done. Anne’s years of experience supporting education have prepared her to serve our community as a member of the Auburn School Board.

– Barb Whitaker

Support Anderson for school board Ryan Anderson is a candidate for the Auburn School Board. I have worked with Ryan on the Auburn Citizens for Schools Committee for six years. He has been chairman of the committee for several years. The fact that Auburn has kept up with rising enrollment with the new Auburn Mountainview High School is due, in no small part, to the efforts of Ryan Anderson. Auburn can be proud of its schools, and Ryan Anderson is one of the reasons that is true. Vote for Ryan Anderson

www.auburn-reporter.com Riemer announced his intentions to his father, a Boeing engineer, who urged his son to obtain his first-class license with the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) before getting in front of the mic. “He always had this evil plan that I would follow in his footsteps and become an engineer,” Riemer said. “And he came up with this plan.” Riemer took his advice and spent the better part of a summer studying and taking FCC exams. “You needed a third-class license to be on the air,” Riemer explained. “They had a secondclass license if you wanted to be an engineer at a radio station and a first-class license if you wanted to be an engineer at a TV station. And the tests for the classes were progressively more difficult, with intense electronic, mathematics and algebra for the first-class license. “My dad thought that would help me get over this radio kick in no time, and in the process, I’d have to learn all this engineering stuff and have a leg up in college,” Riemer said. After passing the first-class exam and earning his license, Riemer walked into KGRG and asked for a weekend spot at the station. “Nobody there had a first-class license,” Riemer said. “When I told them I had one, they said, ‘You’re insane,’ and gave me a spot. “It was a shrewd little strategy

“ I’ve tried to put together why I found radio so fascinating, and the best I can come up with is that it is theater of the mind.” – Marty Riemer on my dad’s part to get me to learn all this highfaluting math and science.” Although radio continued to be his focus, Riemer eventually received his master’s degree in electrical engineering from the University of Washington. After working at KGRG for four years, he began attending the UW where he worked at KCMU. In 1982, Riemer gave up his amateur DJ status and got his first paying gig at Seattle rock station KZOK. “It was Sunday morning, 6 to noon,” he said. “I was in heaven.” After four years there, Riemer got the chance to fulfill a childhood dream when he was picked

“And that’s all we said,” he added. “Because of the changes to the media, something like that would never happen again,” Riemer added. “Something like that now would break on Twitter. It wouldn’t break on the radio.” In 1997, after a stint working outside radio as an electrical engineer and starting up his own video production company, Twisted Scholar, Riemer accepted an offer from KMTT to return to the air. “The only reason I was interested in the Mountain is because while I was setting up my own business, I was listening to the station all the time,” he said. “I was becoming a radio junkie again. “In radio, you rarely have an opportunity to work at a radio station you would listen to,” he added. “This station is so in my wheelhouse.” In 2009, Riemer’s contract wasn’t renewed with KMTT, but he would return after a year. He was asked to come back because of the popularity of his podcast and the demand from his listeners. And he’s still on the air, living out his dream. “I’ve just been endlessly fascinated with the idea of sitting in this room and speaking with the faceless masses,” he said. “It’s really kind of a weird disconnect that I’m sitting here all by myself, and yet people are listening to me in Granite Falls and places I don’t even know exist. I find that endlessly fascinating, the idea of theater of the mind.”

radio’s popularity in the 1970s and the ascension of the FM band, to radio’s struggle with staying relevant and profitable in these days of Internet podcasting and streaming. He also has been a part of history. He is credited as being the one who broke the news of Kurt Cobain’s suicide in 1994. And it all started in Auburn, where Riemer grew up and later graduated from high school in 1980. Riemer first caught the radio bug at age 13. “We were taking a trip to the ocean, and we stopped to visit a friend of the family who worked for KGHO in Grays Harbor,” he said. “It was a weekend, and he was sitting all by himself, playing vinyl.” Riemer grew interested and begged off the trip to the shore, preferring to hang out at the radio station. “From that point on, I was on fire,” he said. “I’ve tried to put together why I found radio so fascinating, and the best I can come up with is that it is theater of the mind. It’s why books are better than movies. You can fill in the picture much better with your mind than some Hollywood producer can.” Riemer set out to find a way to get on the air. He discovered a local radio station down the street from where he lived.

up by another Seattle station, KJR. “When I was growing up in Auburn, KJR was the mammoth, powerhouse AM station,” he said. “And when I was growing up, I told myself, ‘Come hell or high water, I am going to get a job at KJR.’ “To have worked in that facility, where so much radio history took place, was an incredible experience.” In the early 1990s, Riemer moved to KXRX, where he broke the news of Cobain’s death. While working the morning shift, Riemer received a phone call from a man who worked for a local electrical contractor. “One of their guys was at Cobain’s house. They found a body and it looked like Cobain had committed suicide,” he said. “And we said, ‘Thank you very much, sir. Why don’t you go back to your crack factory?’ ” After hanging up on the caller, Riemer said the man persisted, calling back two more times before his radio staff called Seattle police, who confirmed they had dispatched a cruiser to the Cobain residence. “When we heard that part of the story was true, coupled with the amount of detail this guy had given us (on the phone), we figured this story might be true,” Riemer said. Riemer and the station decided to go on the air to announce that the Nirvana frontman had committed suicide.

Auburn Riverside senior Korey Krotzer had little trouble beating the field at the Westside Classic District Cross Country meet at American Lake Golf Course in Lakewood last Saturday, grabbing first with a 15-minute, 30.3-second effort in the boys 4A race. Krotzer, who won the district title last season and was fourth at the state meet, beat Wolfgang Beck of Gig Harbor by 28 seconds to grab the title. “They went out pretty hard,” Krotzer said. “At the mile I kind of just broke away and started dropping everybody. From there it was just about how many seconds I could beat everybody by.” The Ravens placed ninth in the team competition, just missing the cut for the state meet. “We missed qualifying as a team by one point,” Krotzer said. “That’s kind of a bummer, it’s the first time in ten years (for Auburn Riverside).” Although Krotzer will be joined at the state meet by teammate Trevor Love, who notched a 30th place 16.94.4 finish, he said it was disappointing not to have

Individually, the goal for Krotzer is nothing short of a 4A title at the state meet which unfolds at 2:30 p.m. Saturday at Sun Willows Golf Course in Pasco. “The goal is a state title, that’s really what it’s all about right now, maybe run a good time, but it’s all

The Auburn Mountainview football team secured its first-ever trip to the postseason last Friday with a 29-12 win over Decatur in South Puget Sound League 3A action at Auburn Memorial Stadium. The win sets up a state play-in playoff for the Li-

Flu and â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t touch rulesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; and influenza B. Now is the time to get vaccinated. It takes about two weeks for the body to develop protection (antibodies) once you receive the vaccine. Even though the vaccine formulation is the same for the 2011 to 2012 flu season, you need to receive it again this year. The vaccine potency only last for approximately 4-6 months, thereafter it loses its effectiveness. Who should receive the vaccine? It is recommended for those 6 months and older, especially women who are pregnant, people over the age of 50, and individuals with chronic medical conditions. There are two formulations of the flu vaccine: shot; and nasal spray. The nasal spray is available for those who are needle-phobic, healthy individuals ages 2-49, and not pregnant. Cost of the vaccine ranges from $15-$35. The vaccine Dr. Linda Petter

able. The flu is an extremely contagious respiratory illness. The incubation period (exposure to onset of symptoms) for the flu is quick, one to two days. The flu is truly miserable and unmistakable. Symptoms often encompass the entire body: fever, chills, muscle/joint aches, fatigue, diarrhea, headache, sore throat and/or cough. Typically, symptoms last for 2-10 days. A person is considered contagious until the symptoms and fever have been gone for 24 hours. The best defense against the flu is getting vaccinated. Typically, the vaccine is reformulated every year in anticipation of the most common viruses that will cross the globe. However, this is an unusual year, in that the formulation of the vaccine is the same as last year. The vaccine contains three viral strains: influenza A (H1N1, H3N2)

DOCTORâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;S VISIT

Every year at this time a few of my patients adamantly refuse to get the flu shot. Why? They claim it caused the flu in the past. My response is always the same. There are many different viral strains that can cause the flu. Therefore, it might be merely a coincidental timing of the vaccine and the presence of a different viral infection within the body. In addition, the flu shot contains an inactivated, dead virus. Therefore, an individual will not get the flu from the flu shot. Flu season in the United States is October through April. Every year 5-20 percent of our population will contract the flu. This results in more than 200,000 hospitalizations, and yearly deaths ranging from 3,000 to 49,000 (data collected 1976 and 2006; source Centers for Disease Control and Prevention). Fortunately, for the most part, this illness is prevent-

is available at most doctor offices, clinics and selected pharmacies. Receiving the vaccine is a not a 100-percent guarantee you wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get the flu. Therefore, here are more tips to help lessen your chance of contracting this seasonal illness â&#x20AC;&#x201C; â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t Touch Rules.â&#x20AC;? 1. Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t touch your face. The flu virus is not absorbed through the skin. Rather, the virus can live outside of the body and on surfaces (i.e., door knobs, light switches, counter tops) for up to 48 hours. You can pick up the virus on your hands and inoculate yourself by then touching your nose, mouth or eyes. Therefore, keep your hands away from your face. 2. Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t share your cough. Cover up when you cough or sneeze. The virus can easily become aerosolized and travel through the air. A sneeze can travel

over 100 miles per hour and release up to 40,000 contaminated droplets. The â&#x20AC;&#x153;hang timeâ&#x20AC;? in the air of the smallest infected droplets are influenced by humidity and the sunlight. The lower humidity and shorter daylight hours support the survival of the flu virus during the fall and winter. Simply remember: â&#x20AC;&#x153;Use a tissue or a sleeve, when you cough or when you sneeze.â&#x20AC;? 3. Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t touch or reuse a tissue. The virus can survive on a dry tissue of up to 15 minutes; mixed with mucous, up to several days. Therefore, use a tissue once and then toss it away. 4. Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t touch hands. When possible, avoid shaking hands during the flu season. Hands are one of the greatest sources of transmitting infection. The virus can survive on skin for five minutes. Wash hands frequently

When sick, do not share personal items with others such utensils, glasses, toothbrush and towels.
