Since 2003, the Don’t Bug Me flu awareness and prevention campaign, a joint partnership between Hillcrest Medical Center and the Tulsa Health Department, is designed to teach healthy lifestyle habits to avoid getting or spreading the flu. The awareness effort is conducted throughout classrooms and businesses, and is supported by materials provided to teachers and businesses; public appearances; and print, broadcast and outdoor advertising. By following the guidelines and messages set forth in the Don’t Bug Me campaign, you can help stop the flu! You can download Don’t Bug Me materials here for free.
