For children, simple preventive measures like how many times to wash hands and ways to safeguard against catching virus will be listed. For the teachers, the information will on how to tackle the situation if someone has been detected with the flu.

Parents too will be provided with a list of do's and don'ts, the official said.

'As its natural for parents to panic, we want to inform them what all is needed to be done. If simple preventive measures are followed then there is nothing to worry about,' the official added.

The awareness campaigns, which have been planned by Unicef, focus on sending a positive message.

The official said the advertisements now on air shows a boy, who has been tested positive for swine flu, watching others play cricket while he looks at them from his verandah and how a man travelling in a bus uses a handkerchief when he sneeze.

The advertisements express the idea that such behaviour - staying away from crowd, covering nose and mouth with handkerchief while sneezing and coughing and getting test done - is a positive step to curb the virus, the official added.

'We wanted to show the positive behaviour of the people and that's why our tagline is stop infection and be a hero,' the official said.
