Cold and Flu Prevention

As we approach the fall and winter months, it’s important to better your health habits to avoid catching a cold. In 2019 alone, the CDC estimates that there were 40 million positive flu cases.

Here are some tips on how to better your habits to prevent you and your loved ones from potentially catching a cold, or even the flu.

1. Avoid close contact with others who are sick
2. Stay home if you are under the weather – this will limit the spread to others
3. Cover your mouth and nose when coughing or sneezing
4. Wash your hands often and thoroughly
5. Avoid touching your eyes, nose and mouth
6. Practice other good habits, such as disinfecting your home and personal items often
