Presentation transcript:

Key Words (Match the words to their correct meanings by drawing a line between them) Epidemic Pandemic Vaccinate Hygiene Virus When a disease affects lots of people in a small area. When a disease affects lots of people in a wide area e.g. across the world. Give a person a small amount of a disease so that they do not catch it fully. Things you do in order to keep clean. A tiny particle that replicates in a host e.g. human or animal

The Importance of Personal Hygiene Aim: critically examine ways that you and others can prevent the spread of germs PLTS: (Team Work) Collaborate with others to work towards common goals

Confirmed cases of swine flu in 26 countries

Country CasesDeaths Laboratory confirmed Probable (Suspected) Confirmed (suspected) WHOWHO totals2500N/A44 Total * 3, (2,600+)48 (100) There are 12,000 deaths due to ‘normal’ flu in the UK every year! The pandemic of 1918 killed 50,000,000 people

Your most important priority for stopping the spread of the virus Your least important priority for stopping the spread of the virus

Disadvantages of using each option Advantages of using each option You now need to analyse each option by saying why they would be good and bad ideas Things to consider when assessing each option: Will it be expensive or lead to Mexico losing money? Would it take lots of time to organise? Will it make people angry? How many? Simply – will it actually stop the virus from spreading?

PLTS Where did we use the lessons’ PLTS today? How did your group come to decisions?

The Plenary – What can we do to help? What things can you do that will help to stop the spread of germs?
