How to Stay Healthy

• Cover your mouth and nose with tissues every time you sneeze or cough.
  
  
• Put used tissues into the trash.
  
  
• Wash your hands well and often with soap and water, or use an alcohol hand sanitizer (the sanitizer does not work with the Noro Virus strain). 
  
  
• Stay home when you are sick.
  
  
• Do not share eating utensils, drinking glasses, towels, or other personal items.
  
  
• Avoid touching your eyes, nose or mouth.
  
  
• When possible, avoid close contact with people who are sick.
  
  
• Get vaccinated. Influenza (flu) and pneumococcal (pneumonia) vaccines can prevent some serious respiratory illnesses.
