• Ways to Prevent the Spread of the Flu
     
    It is not too late to get a flu shot!  Please protect yourself and others by getting your shot today.  You may visit your family physician, any CareNow, most pharmacies, Parker County Hospital District, and the health department.  Remember, flu season is October - April, with peak typically between November & February.
     
    Cover your nose and mouth with a tissue when you cough or sneeze. Throw the tissue in the trash after you use it. If you do not have a tissue,  cough or sneeze in your upper sleeve, not your hands.
     
    Wash your hands often with soap and water, especially after you cough or sneeze! Alcohol-based hand cleaners are also effective.
     
    Avoid touching the eyes, nose, or mouth.
     
    Try to avoid contact with people who are sick.
     
    Avoid sharing personal items, such as:  clothing, blankets, drinks, food, etc.  This will help to prevent the spread of illnesses/germs to other students.
