Sheltering in place during a pandemic flu means to remain indoors and/or avoid congregating in order to save lives or prevent exposure to a deadly disease. In the event of a pandemic flu, if you hear media reports telling you to shelter in place, some of the things you may be asked to do are:

• Stay at home, especially if you are sick
• Avoid crowds or large groups of people
• Use the items in your emergency kit to avoid leaving your home
• Turn on the battery operated radio in your emergency kit and tune it to a designated news channel
• Listen for messages from public health authorities telling you what to do
