Build resilience against the worst flu season for a decade

Scientists’ winter predictions are proving accurate

Last summer medical scientists predicted a bad winter for flu and news this week from The Times and other media points to it being the worst flu season for a decade. Sadly, this is becoming a catastrophe for many as the NHS has become overwhelmed. Rapid measures need to be taken to ensure resilience and avert a disaster for more businesses and people’s personal lives.

One answer that has proven very effective is temperature testing. A quick, 1 second professional temperature check can indicate the presence of a fever which is likely to be infectious to others. Immediately isolating helps stop the spread to friends, family and colleagues while seeking a medical assessment from the NHS helpline or a local doctor’s surgery. Being vigilant and keeping infections out of offices and public spaces is the key to preventing wide scale spread and building resilience in work and social communities.

Simple and powerful resilience measures

Regular hand sanitising helps prevent virus transfer by physical contact, especially in environments where people are greeting each other with hand shakes and eating food with their fingers. The UKHSA advises wearing masks in public spaces for protection from airborne droplets which are the prime source of spread. Moreover, regular daily temperature testing with professional devices such as for example, FeverCheckerPro systems helps to immediately identify anyone with an elevated temperature which is symptomatic of flu, pneumonia, sepsis or Covid-19 for example. This one temperature check may avert serious illness from many different infections. The simple measures described above provide powerful resilience to flu and other infectious illnesses.

FeverCheckerPro’s Check ‘n go systems are super easy, contactless and super fast. All you have to do is momentarily look at the notebook type screen which checks and conveniently displays your actual temperature (and any alerts) in under 1 second. This form of health check also provides employers with a useful indicator that an employee is fit to work as required under the prevailing employment legislation. At £1590 or just £12.82 per week, temperature checking systems like FeverCheckerPro, are an ultra-low cost, affordable facility for vigilance for all organisations which can be more resilient to the threat of closure due to this season’s flu, covid-19 and other infectious illnesses.
