The primary way the flu spreads is through respiratory droplets released during coughing and sneezing. This can happen when droplets from a cough or sneeze of an infected person are propelled through the air and infect someone nearby.
To prevent the spread of germs:
🦠Wash your hands often with soap and water.
🦠Cover mouth/nose during coughs and sneezes.
🦠Limit contact with people who show signs of illness.
🦠Keep your hands away from your face.
A flu vaccine is the best way to protect against the flu. Because the flu virus changes year to year, annual vaccination against the flu is recommended.
