Stopping the Spread of Disease...

We homeschool now, but when my oldest son was in Kindergarten, they taught the kids to cough, or sneeze, "in their mask". The ideas is to use the inside of the elbow as close to the face as possible, instead of just coughing/sneezing into one's hand. I have heard infections disease workers say that handwashing is the #1 means to stop the spread of infections... so don't cough in your hand.. use your "mask".
