Since its opening,camp teachers at New Jersey's Liberty Lake Day Camp disinfect
(给……消毒) door knobs,take the temperatures of children as they arrive and remind
the campers not to share canned Coke.
Many of the 12,000-plus summer camps in the United States are making greater efforts
to guard against the spread of the new A/H1N1 flu.
Many parents are debating whether they should stop their kids from enjoying the summer
camp because of the new flu.Jing Zhang of New York said she decided to keep her
5-year-old daughter at a local day-care center."Why would I want to spend a fortune on
the summer camp when the risk is the same?" she asked.
Dr.Daniel Rauch,said the risk of catching A/H1N1 flu is only greater in close or group
settings,for instance,when kids sleep near each other in beds,tents or cabins.Unless children
already have potentia
l illness or immunodeficiencies (免疫缺陷),going to summer camps
does not necessarily have a greater risk of catching A/H1N1 flu than going to public spaces
such as playgrounds and shopping centers,he added.
Some camp administrators said they would send any sick child home immediately or
separate them in a clinic and let them play board games while they are being observed.
"We try to create a temporary camping center in the summer and we are very vigilant
about it," said Andy Pritikin,director of Liberty Lake Day Camp in Mansfield,who sent a
child with fever home last week,with full credit to come back later in the summer.
"Parents should know whether camp nurses are available.And if there's only a bottle
of medicine and a bed in the back room,and it takes three and a half hours to get to the
nearest hospital,parents need to know that," said Sean Nienow,director of the National
Camp Association.
