Tips to Avoid the Flu:
- Practice cough etiquette. Cover your nose and mouth with a tissue or your elbow when you cough or sneeze. Throw tissues in the trash after use.
- Wash your hands. Clean your hands frequently with soap and water or an alcohol based hand rub. Try to avoid touching your eyes, nose or mouth.
- Stay home. If you get sick, stay home from work or school.
