Did you know that this week is National Influenza Vaccination Week and National Handwashing Awareness Week? 

It is no secret that these two things play a big role in the prevention of contracting influenza. What do you know about influenza? Test your knowledge! Also, don't forget to take the influenza vaccination pledge for 2015-2016!




Getting the flu vaccine is the best way to prevent the flu. Washing your hands and covering your cough can slow the spread of germs, however. Dr. Sawyer of Henry the Hand Foundation says to wash your hands before eating, don't use your hands to cover a cough or sneeze, and do not put your fingers in your eyes, mouth or nose.
