1. Stay home if you’re sick and keep sick kids home from school. Get plenty of rest and fluids and return when symptoms subside. Log-in from home if there’s something that can’t wait.
2. Use tissues for sniffles, sneezes or coughs and throw them away immediately. Don’t put them in your pocket. Don’t use a handkerchief. Use a tissue to cover your mouth when you sneeze or cough, or sneeze or cough into your bent elbow rather than your hand.
3. Take extra care to wash your hands often, especially after blowing your nose or using the bathroom, and before handling food or dishes. Clean surfaces that you handle often, like doorknobs, light switches, keyboards, mice, and telephones. Wash clothes, bedding, and towels.
