* Use Soap and warm running water and rub your hands together for at least 15 seconds. Wash the front and the back of your hands, as well as between your fingers and under your finger nails.
* Keep an alcohol-based hand sanitizer (gel or wipes) handy at work, at home and in the car. You may never know when you'll need to do a quick wash!
*Cover your mouth and nose when you cough -- if you don't have a tissue, cough or sneeze into your upper sleeve, not onto your hands.
* Put used tissues in the wastebasket immediately.
* Try not to touch eyes, nose or mouth -- this is a common way to spread germs.
It is also important to wash up:
* Before, during and after preparing and eating meals.
* After handling animals or animal waste.
* When someone at work or home is sick.
