How do you reduce the chances of spreading influenza?

27 April 2009

Preactice good personal hygiene as outlined in this page.

  • Don’t share eating utensils and drinking glasses.

     
  • Clean utensils used by sick people or surfaces they touch with warm, soapy water or disinfectant.

     
  • Avoid crowded situations that place you in close contact with others.

     
  • Don’t smoke. Smoking makes it easier to catch influenza and increases the likelihood of serious complications.

     
  • Stay home if sick with a fever or cough.
