  15. Prevention • Keep hands clean at all times. Wash your hands as many times during the day as possible. …. • Always wash your hands with soap. If there is no soap, wash hands in hot water, and dry them well.

  16. Prevention • Keep a nasal decongestant on hand. • If you begin to feel sniffles coming your way, take the decongestant, without waiting to see if the symptoms get worse.
