Get a fl u shot.
It's the best
way to prevent
illness.
Wash your
hands often
with soap and
water. Use an
alcohol-based
hand sanitizer
when available.
Power from
within: Eat
healthy foods,
exercise and
get enough
sleep to boost
your immune
system.
Avoid using
coworkers'
equipment.
If you must,
disinfect it
fi rst or wash
your hands
afterward.
If you're sick,
stay home. No
reason to share
your cold with
others.
