Here’s a simple thing we all can do to stop the spread of viruses, colds, flus. COUGH AND SNEEZE INTO YOUR ELBOW!
Why? Unlike the hand, the elbow does not touch much. Unlike a tissue, the elbow is always available.
Do an internet search on cough into your elbow.
PLEASE do not cough or sneeze into your hands.
Simple change of habit that can result in less germs and viruses being spread.
I found a video that does a good job of explaining how viruses and germs are spread.

I know this flu as any is always scary..However as I have said before it does not seem any more lethal than the flu that occurs every year. However taking precautions like washing hands a lot, staying home when sick and being considerate is good.
