| Flu Masks on PSS |
Yes, it is flu season :-(
You or someone you know may be battling the flu right now. Here are a few quick tips to avoid the flu and keep from passing it on:
- Get a vaccine shot
- Cover your nose and mouth with a tissue when coughing or sneezing
- Cover your nose and mouth with a flu mask
- If a tissue or flu mask are not available, cough or sneeze into your elbow not your hands
- Wash your hands often, especially after coughing or sneezing
- If soap and water are not available, use an alcohol-based hand-rub
- Avoid touching the eyes, nose or mouth
- Avoid close contact with people who are sick
- If you are sick, stay home
- If someone in your home has the flu, designate one person as the caregiver. Have other household members avoid close contact with that person
- If someone is showing signs of the flu, call the doctor
Many thanks to the Red Cross for helping providing this info (and more)!
