Be Proactive! Take Precautions!

The influenza (FLU) virus can live on some surfaces anywhere from a couple of hours up to a couple of days! Here are a few tips to help prevent catching a cold or the flu:

  • Using household cleaners, clean regularly areas that are touched frequently, such as keyboards, doorknobs, sink water tap handles, phones, desktop surfaces, etc.
  • Do not share water bottles or drinks.
  • Wash your hands with hot soapy water frequently.
  • Use hand sanitizer (60 to 90% alcohol based) when you do not have access to soapy water to wash your hands.
  • Cough and sneeze into your sleeve to prevent spreading germs to others.
  • If you are sick, try to isolate yourself from others when possible to avoid spreading germs.
