Tip 2: Get Immunized
The flu virus can spread fast, so get vaccinated.
You can get vaccinated for H1N1 and the seasonal flu at the same time, in the same shot.
Tip 3: Use Anti-Viral Facial Tissue
Some cold and flu viruses can live up to 24 hours on regular tissues, so use an Anti-Viral facial tissue that will kill 99.9% of common cold viruses.
Tip 4: Cough or Sneeze into your Elbow
One sneeze can spray up to 3,000 infection droplets into the air at more than 100 MPH. If you don’t have a tissue handy, use the inner part of your sleeve at the elbow. Do you part to help reduce the fast spread of germs.
Tip 5.: Stay Home if Sick
