Stop The Spread of The Flu

The CDC also recommends several easy-to-follow steps to help stop the spread of the flu:

  • If you get sick with flu-like illness, stay home for at least 24 hours after your fever is gone except to get medical care or for other necessities.
  • Practice proper cough and sneeze etiquette to prevent the spread of germs. (Cough into your elbow.)
  • Wash your hands regularly.
  • Avoid touching your eyes, nose or mouth.
  • Clean and disinfect frequently touched surfaces at home, work or school, especially when someone is ill.

These steps can help prevent the spread of respiratory viruses like influenza, but are not a substitute for a flu shot.
