Avoid close contact

Avoid close contact with people who are sick. Also, when you are sick, keep your distance from others to avoid getting sick. Until you recover, stay home. If possible keep distance from school-college and office when sick. This will help prevent your illness from spreading.

Cover your mouth and nose

Disease-causing germs can be spread when a person touches something contaminated with germs and then touches their eyes, nose, or mouth with it. Meanwhile, avoid touching your eyes, nose or mouth frequently.

Adopt good health related habits

To avoid seasonal flu, frequently touched objects at home, office or school-college should be cleaned and disinfected especially when someone is sick. Get enough sleep, be physically active, manage your stress, drink plenty of fluids and eat nutritious meals.
