Sanitizer : The most effective method to avoid getting sick is to wash you hands well,in between wawhings or when you can not use hand sanitizer.Try to keep hands away from face and make sure your immunizations are up to date such as the flu vaccine,In addition try not to share utensils,straws,glasses etc
