The Haryana Health Department issued an advisory on swine flu amid changing weather conditions. Listed symptoms included fever, cough, sore throat, a runny or blocked nose, breathing difficulty, headache, body and joint pain, weakness, loss of appetite, nausea, vomiting and diarrhoea. People experiencing fever, coughing or sneezing were advised to avoid public places to reduce transmission. The advisory emphasises early attention to symptoms, respiratory hygiene and responsible behaviour rather than panic. For HSSC, remember that swine flu is associated with the H1N1 influenza virus and spreads mainly through respiratory droplets. Candidates should connect the state advisory with prevention, symptom awareness and protection of vulnerable people.
