I'm always trying to take precautions when it comes to my health.
I get flu shots every year and also got the pneumonia shot, however this year is a brutal one in Buffalo New York.
I work in the health field and am certain I have built up a certain immunity against these bugs, but they really got me this year. I came down with the worst cold I have had in years; at times I have even skipped a year when I have not been sick but the beast attacked me early in the month. Of course I had to share
with the hubby.
This seems to be a bad year for sickness, a lot of patients coming in sick. My advice is to de- germ as much as possible, frequent sanitizing of hands, turn away from people spreading germs with sneezing and coughing and if flying, as I always do, get some anti bacterial wipes and wipe down those seats, tray tables and arm rests.
It does make a difference.
Stay well everyone and be careful.
If your immunity is compromised you will be in trouble, I even go so far as to carry a mask if needed when traveling. STAY WELL
