In addition to getting the flu vaccine, prevent the spread of illness by following these steps: 

  • Cough or sneeze into your elbow or a tissue and properly dispose of used tissues
  • Avoid touching your eyes, nose or mouth
  • Wash your hands often with soap and water, especially after a cough or sneeze. Alcohol-based hand sanitizers may be used if soap and water are not available
  • Avoid close contact with sick people
  • Stay home when you are sick to avoid spreading illness to others
  • Contact your medical provider for treatment options
