Prevenative Tips Avoid close contact
Avoid close contact with those who are sick. When you are sick, keep your distance from others to protect them from getting sick, too. Stay home when ill
If possible, stay home from work, school or errands when you are sick. You will help others from catching your illness. Cover your coughs
Cover your nose with a tissue when sneezing and dispose of the tissues properly. When coughing, cover your mouth with your arm, not your hand. It may prevent those around you from getting sick. Wash your hands
Washing your hands with soap and water often will help protect you from germs. Avoid touching your face
Germs are often spread when a person touches something that is contaminated with germs and then touches his or her eyes, nose or mouth. Practice good health habits
Get plenty of sleep, by physically active, drink plenty of fluids, manage your stress and eat nutritious foods. Source: Centers for Disease Control and Prevention |
