The threat of the H1N1 influenza (flu) in 2009, along with year-round risks from colds and other respiratory and gastrointestinal illnesses, makes it an especially good time to make sure you wash your hands.
This is because germs are spread from human-to-human contact, such as touching your fingers to your nose and eyes, shaking hands, touching objects that someone else picks up, and other such activities.
Just 20 seconds of soap and water rubbed on the hands will make a world of difference as we enter another flu season this winter.
