Practice Good Health Habits

The Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommends that you take everyday actions to stay healthy this flu season.

• Cover your nose and mouth with a tissue when you cough or sneeze.
• Wash your hands with soap and water. Alcohol-based hand rubs are also effective.
• Avoid touching your eyes, nose or mouth. Germs spread that way.
• Stay home if you are sick. And limit contact with others to keep from infecting them.
• Disinfect frequently touched surfaces like bedside tables, bathroom surfaces, children’s toys, door knobs, light switchers, and telephones.
