Basic Tips to Avoid the Flu
The flu is a very contagious virus that is easily spread from person to person through tiny droplets that are released into the air when an infected person coughs or sneezes. Sometimes, people can become infected by touching their nose or mouth after touching something infected by the flu virus.
The Department of Health's Catch it, Bin it, Kill it! adverts urge people to cover coughs and sneezes with tissues, throw them away and wash their hands. Follow these basic steps to help prevent you and your family from getting sick with the flu:
- COVER YOUR MOUTH. When you cough or sneeze cover your mouth with a tissue. Germs can survive for hours on a surface but not on a tissue.
- WASH YOUR HANDS REGULARLY. The most common way that people catch colds and the flu is by rubbing their nose or their eyes after their hands have been contaminated with a virus. Wash your hands and routinely clean and disinfect surfaces, toys, and objects that younger children may put in their mouths.
- STAY AT HOME IF YOU ARE SICK. Avoid close contact with people if you are experiencing any symptoms such as a fever.
