Hand Hygiene: Flu shot will not prevent common colds. Clean your hands with soap and water or with hand sanitizers. Avoid touching your eyes, nose and mouth when at work. Adequate sleep, rest and a balanced diet to optimize your immune system. See a doctor to r/o diabetes or other health conditions if the above does not work.
