Keep
Your Germs To Yourself!
|
|
Cover
your nose and mouth with a tissue
when sneezing, coughing, or
blowing your nose.
|
|
|
Throw
out used tissues in the trash
as soon as you can.
|
|
|
Always
wash your hands after sneezing,
blowing your nose, coughing,
or after touching used tissues
or handkerchiefs. Wash hands
often if you are sick.
|
|
|
Use
warm water and soap, or alcohol-based
hand sanitizers, to wash your
hands.
|
|
|
Try
to stay home if you have a cough
and fever.
|
|
|
See
your doctor as soon as you
can if you have a cough and
fever, and follow their instructions,
including taking medicine as
prescribed and getting lots
of rest.
|
|
|
If
asked to, use facemasks provided
in your doctor's office or clinic
waiting room and follow their
instructions to help stop the
spread of germs.
|
Keep the Germs Away!
|
|
Avoid
close contact with people
who are sick. When you are
sick, keep your distance
from others to protect them
from getting sick too.
|
|
|
Wash
your hands before eating
and before touching your
eyes, nose, or mouth.
|
|
|
Wash
your hands after touching
anyone else who is sneezing,
coughing, blowing their
nose, or whose nose is running.
|
|
|
Don't
share things like cigarettes,
towels, lipstick, toys,
or anything else that might
be contaminated with respiratory
germs.
|
|
|
Don't
share food, utensils, or
beverage containers with
others.
|
Taking
these actions can help you
and those around
you stay flu-free!
