  How to Avoid the Flu

  Wash your hands with soap and water frequently, especially after you have been around people who are sick. Also if you touch something like a doorknob, computer mouse, shopping cart, even the handle of a toilet, make sure you wash your hands.

  Try not to touch your face. This is a surefire way to transmit a cold or flu germ to yourself.

  Cover your sneezes and coughs and ask people around you to do the same.

  Practice good health habits. Get enough sleep and eat a healthy diet.

  Disinfect doorknobs, keyboards, handles and telephones. Spray disinfectant spray on a soft cloth to clean commonly used items.
