| The #1 prevention measure that the CDC (Center for Disease Control & Prevention) recommends is to to get a flu vaccine for the upcoming flu season. This season is expected to be even worse that past flu seasons due to the onset of the H1N1 virus, commonly referred to as the Swine Flu. Besides getting a flu vaccine, there are many everyday precautionary measures that we all take in our day to day lives to minimize the risk of spreading the flu. The products listed below are what we recommend to help prevent the spread of these dangerous viruses. |

The 1st step would be to keep a hand sanitizing solution near you at all times. This pump version is perfect for use in restrooms at your home or workplace. We also have sanitizing wipes available, which are perfect for keeping in your vehicle to be used as needed. |

The 3rd step is to disinfect areas that get used frequently by multiple people. Use a disinfectant wipe or spray to clean these areas frequently to prevent the spread of viruses. This would include computer keyboards, telephones, countertops, and door handles. |

If you are part of a large work force, and are in close contact with people who may have come in contact with a virus, you may want to incorporate a face mask in to your prevention measures. This would apply to people who work in care facilities, such as hospitals or retirement homes. |
