Help stop the spread of germs
- Cover your nose and mouth with a tissue when you cough or sneeze. Throw the tissue in the trash after you use it.
|
- Wash your hands often with soap and water. If soap and water are not available, use an alcohol-based hand rub.
|
- Avoid touching your eyes, nose and mouth. Germs spread this way.
|
- Try to avoid close contact with sick people.
|
- If you are sick with flu-like illness stay home for at least 24 hours until you are fever-free and feel normal again (except to get medical care or for other necessities).
|
- While sick, limit contact with others as much as possible to keep from infecting them
