Flu Virus
Tips of Preventing Flu Virus At Bay
The flu is as old as humans on this earth, people say that
you can contact a flu virus only once in your life, and you
never repeat falling sick because of the same virus twice.
The flu virus usually spreads most commonly through hand
contact, and not as it is commonly believed through sneezing
and contaminated air. Usually, we tend to sneeze on the papers
they have in front of them, or on the hand. Then the person
shakes hand with you – and bingo the flu virus is crawling
all over you. Now, all you have to do is put your hand to
you eyes, nose or mouth and the virus is inside your body.
There is nothing than can be done.
Wash Your Hands As Frequently As You Can to Prevent
the Flu Virus
The virus will enter your body through the mucous membrane
of your body, which refers to your nose, your eyes and your
mouth. It could spread through sex also but we are all looking
at the most common examples. The microbes/germs will accumulate
on your hands and all around you.
Anyone who touches things on your desk, then you will have
the germs covering him/he in no time. However, this is harmless
until you put your hand in your eye, mouth or nose. Therefore,
before you do that, wash your hands with soap and if you have
a germicidal solution before you touch your face or food.
You must have heard about the avian flu virus which has become
pandemic and has created waves of global panic. It is true
that the disease is highly contagious. The infection is passed
from birds to humans through touching of bird bodies and their
excreta.
By just touching, it cannot facilitate the virus getting
into the blood stream. You touch the bird and then touch the
mucous membrane of your body is the only way that it can cross
over in your blood stream.
Therefore, if you make sure that your clothes are washed
before these touch anything else in the house, always wash
your hands, hair and body thoroughly, there is a little chance
that you catch the virus.
