Stay Cold Free This Winter

By on January 23, 2007 in Ideas


Prevention:

Common cold viruses are more tenacious than anyone thought–rhinoviruses can live on hard surfaces for at least 18 hours.

  • Washing your hands frequently is still your best line of defense, but go the extra mile to protect yourself.
  • Flick switches with the side of your hand or wrist, which makes you less likely to pick up or pass along germs on your hands.
  • Make all calls on your cell to avoid getting germs from other phones.
  • Carry your own pen everywhere. Borrowing others’ is a prime way to pass germs.
  • Clean up often. Use a soapy sponge to wipe surfaces you touch frequently.
  • Sneeze into your elbow if you’re caught without a tissue (and teach kids to do the same). It keeps germs off your hands.
