I work with a hundred people and one of em always has the flue it seams

first and foremost never ever put yer fingers in yer mouth.....................always wash yer hands b4 handlin food

the flue virus hangs out on door ***** and such and is waiting for you to grab hold.

keep yer food and water intake up and get plenty of rest to insure your imune system is up to par.....................a weak imune system will be had by the flue

One way to help is to keep from coming into contact. If by chance that you do, keep your hands sanitized by either washing them or Purell. Keep your hands away from your eyes and nose. There isn't anything but a flu shot to prevent the flu. Antibiotics DON'T work. Also what Whitmore said>>>keep your immune system up.

That's asking for more than the flu. Flu will seem like an allergy compared to what you get from idiots not washing their hands after pooping. And isn't sh*t a word reserved for the BL?

Would it be smart for me to stay in our camper instead of my room with the door closed to keep myself away from the virus things in the air or is keeping my door closed to my room good enough to keep them out
