Hand hygiene/avoid: Different viruses can be spread by different routes. Influenza virus is spread by respiratory droplet ie someone coughs and spreads particles. Another route by which respiratory viruses.Are spread is through contact with an infected surface or person and then touching your mouth, eyes, or nose. Hand hygiene, person covering mouth with arm when coughing , and avoid contact as best you can.
