Also, disinfecting is a good idea because flu viruses can survive for about 2 hours or longer on surfaces. Go around your house and wipe down surfaces, doorknobs, phones, and computers to make sure none of your roommates can spread their germs to you. Getting enough rest and staying less stressed is very important because these can lower your immune system making you susceptible to the germs out there. Exercising is important preventative factor as well and helps keep your body healthy and able to fight illness if it happens to get infected with germs. As you guys can see it is very important to practice these steps in trying to combat the flue pandemic this year. Try to do as many of these as you can and hopefully you will be able to escape catching the flu this year and for years on.
