(KBIA) -
MU Health Care has set up a hotline for students to get more information on the H1N1 flu virus. This was created to alleviate the influx of calls the Health Center was receiving from students. The health center has put three operators in charge of answering the phone calls. The hotline is open 24/7 for students to access. MU Health Care Spokesperson, Jeff Hoelscher, says the hotline is a new feature for the public to use."The hotline was established as a proactive approach to providing more information about this new strain of influenza to the public."
Hoelscher says the hotline provides information on the symptoms and when to consult a physician. © Copyright 2012, KBIA
