As Albuquerque’s cold and homeless flock to the city’s homeless shelters, shelter administrators are taking precautions to prevent the spread of the H1N1 swine flu virus. At Joy Junction, the state’s largest homes shelter, people are quarantined in a separate room at the first sign they may have the flu. The shelter, which has hand washing stations and antibacterial hand sanitizer available, has also administered about 100 vaccinations against the H1N1 virus. “When you’re looking for a meal and the next place to stay at night, somehow the cold and the sniffles aren’t that important,” said Jeremy Reynalds, the shelters executive director. “So that puts you in the high-risk group immediately.” Reynalds says the homeless are also susceptible to the virus because they live in close quarters with dozens of people. So far the shelter, which houses about 300 people every night, has only seen three diagnosed cases of H1N1. [www.clipsyndicate.com | KOB Albuquerque]
