Alright, it's obviously cold and flu season, and the media has done its best to instill unnecessary swine flu-related terror in our hearts. I hope that by now, everyone knows that hand washing is the number one defense against contracting the pathogens other people are putting out into the world. However, if you want to do your part to keep others healthy, you really need to take five minutes and watch this entertaining (and totally legit) video.
If you were one of the millions of people who sneezed/coughed into your hands, erroneously thinking you were stopping the spread of germs, you were wrong. The good news is that you now know how to cover your sneeze or cough appropriately. Unfortunately, if you're already in the habit of doing it into your hands, it can be difficult to switch. But with a conscious effort and the health of your community in mind, you can do it!! Let's stay healthy!
