Avoid spreading the flu
If you are sick, limit your contact with other people as much as possible. Do not go to work or school if you are ill. Cover your mouth and nose with a tissue when coughing or sneezing to help protect those around you. Put your used tissue in the waste basket. Cover your cough or sneeze with your arm (not your hands) if you do not have a tissue. Then, clean your hands, and do so every time you cough or sneeze. (Visit Cough Safe for an instructional video).
