During cold and flu season, prevention begins with basic hygiene. First of all, hand washing should never be over looked. Never touch your mouth, nose, or eyes without washing your hands. Be weary of sharing drinks and “double dipping” chips in to dips. Remind those around you to cover their mouths with a tissue when they cough or sneeze. Lastly, don’t share personal items like toiletries, towels, or pillows. These easy steps could help keep you healthy!
