If you cough or sneeze into your hand, these miniscule droplets and the germs in them can be easily spread from your hand to any surface that you touch. These germs can live on those surfaces for some time. Everyday items such as door handles, computer keyboards and telephones are all common surfaces where the flu virus can be found.
If other people touch these surfaces, then touch their faces, the germs can enter their system and they can become infected.
THE BEST THING YOU CAN DO TO PROTECT YOURSELF IS TO FOLLOW GOOD HYGIENE PRACTICES.
Thes will help to slow down the spread of the virus and will be the single most effective thing you can do to protect yourself and others from infection.
When you cough and sneeze it is especially important to follow the rules of good hygeine and prevent the spread of germs and viruses. ALWAYS CARRY TISSUES. Use clean tissues to cover your mouth and nose when you sneeze and cough. BIN the tissue after use. WASH YOUR HANDS WITH SOAP and hot water or use a SANITISING GEL often. MAKE SURE HARD SURFACES ARE CLEANED REGULARLY. Door handles and the like can be cleaned with a good disinfectant or SANITISING SPRAY.
