Despite the fact that we’re not officially in the midst of cold and flu season, Swine Flu and other viral and bacterial illnesses are very much a presence in our country.  Hand washing and antibacterial gels are a staple in our household.  Here are some facts you may not know about the cold and and flu.

  • It is estimated that there are more than 125 million workdays missed by parents who stay home with a sick child
  • One sneeze can spray 100,000 infectious droplets into the air at more than 200 MPH
  • Cold and flu viruses can live up to 24-hours on hard surfaces and up to 3 hours on your skin
  • Rhinovirus is most active from late fall, spring and summer
  • Up to 189 million school days are missed each year due to a cold

If and when you do get sick, you may want to consider the all-new Kleenex Anti-Viral Tissues.  I haven’t tried them yet, but these “super” tissues can actually kill viruses.   Here is a little more information from the site:

  • The blue-dotted, moisture-activated layer indicates it’s a Kleenex Anti-Viral Tissue
  • Tissues are fragrance free
  • The middle layer of Kleenex Anti-Viral Tissues contains active ingredients that kill 99.9% of cold and flu viruses
  • They are extremely soft and gentle enough even for small children
Some of the things we do to “Battle the Bug” include ensuring we eat properly, take vitamins, and avoid crowded, enclosed places when we can.  Here are some more tips to help you out this year:
  • Wash your hands before you eat, after you use the bathroom, after you play with a pet and when you come in from playing outdoors
  • Get a good night’s sleep every night. Sleep can help strengthen the immune system
  • Dispose of used tissues in the trash as soon as possible
    • I have teamed up with Kleenex to offer one of my readers an opportunity to try out the Kleenex Anti-Viral Tissues and receive a $50 Visa Card.
    Win It! Simply head on over to the site and leave me a comment with one way you’re Battling the Bug all year long.  Comments will close on July 22, 2009 at 10 PM PST.   One comment per person, please (unless you do the extra credit).

      We wash hands around here and I’ve also been teaching my toddlers to cover their mouth when they sneeze. I always sneeze into my elbow so I don’t have to worry about washing the germs off of my hands all the time LOL

      I have the anti-bacterial washes with me in my car, purse, in a project bag. I try to maintain clean hands plus I try to make sure that we drink enough fluid.

      I always have hand santizier in my purse, and make sure that the kids and I use it a few times a day and always before eating. I especially love Burt’s Bees Aloe & Witch Hazel Hand Sanitizer Spray, it smells divine and makes your hands so soft! It makes germ fighting easy :)

      Great giveaway, thanks so much.

      17 Jamie Z on July 8th, 2009 7:40 am
      I have been carrying around santizier and using it a lot.
      18 Claudia on July 8th, 2009 7:49 am
      we only use a tissue once and then toss it in the trash!

      thanks

      19 Carrie on July 8th, 2009 7:55 am
      We battle the bug all year with handwashing and trying to stay home when we’re not feeling well, to keep from passing it on.
      20 laurie on July 8th, 2009 7:57 am

      We try to practice good hand washing, take vitamins, and if we know sone one is sick, try to stay away.

      25 Linda White on July 8th, 2009 8:14 am
      AntiViral sounds like a good idea for a Kleenex product! I only use Kleenex tissues! Nothing else is a kleenex to me!
      26 Ellen C. on July 8th, 2009 8:23 am
      We wash our hands often as well as cover our mouths when we cough and sneeze. We also try to eat a balanced diet to get all of our vitamins.
      27 Cortney on July 8th, 2009 8:35 am
      I love the tissues, Kleenex is a great soft tissue that my kids LOVE. When theyre sick they hate the chapped “Rudolph” nose, and with Kleenex it never happens.
      Thanksss.
      28 Nad on July 8th, 2009 8:35 am
      Drink lots of water and orange juice as well for vitamin C.

      It may seem a bit cliche but as a surgical Nurse and a Mommy of 5, it is the truth–frequent and proper handwashing is the most important thing you can do to stop the spread of germs. I’m talking about using lukewarm water, good old fashioned soap and good friction for a minimum of 20 seconds (my Kids sing the alphabet) after each bathroom visit, before you touch anything in the kitchen, when obviously soiled, before bed, when you wake up, etc. etc.

      We battle the bug year round by using the disinfecting wipes on shopping carts prior to using them. Those carts are just LOADED with nasty germs. Thanks.

      I do the basic stuff: washing hands, hand sanitizers, and wiping down carts with sani-wipes. I’m moderately active and eat healthier than I used to, which isn’t exactly “healthy” per se, but it’s better than before. :P
      39 Kristy H on July 8th, 2009 10:11 am
      We battle the blog with lots of Vitamin C! I like the chewable Vitamin C tabs, the kids love OJ, and hubby loves oranges! So far, we’ve been pretty lucky and haven’t had any nasty colds!

      40 Alicia Webster on July 8th, 2009 10:18 am
      We battle the bug all year round by being, and staying, happy. I am a big believer that stress causes illness (or increases one’s susceptibility), so we try to let all the little aggravations of life just roll off our backs. Being grateful for all that we have been blessed with helps us to do that.

      44 Mary on July 8th, 2009 11:08 am
      We use hand sanitizer a lot when we’re out in public places. My husband also believes firmly that raspberries have anti-oxidants so he gives them as a snack to the kids after dinner. Multi-vitamins are also part of our routine to ward off colds.

      Thanks so much.

      128 Joannie on July 9th, 2009 7:45 am
      We battle the bug by keeping a box of kleenex in every room, by washing our hands often, by keeping kitchen and bathroom counters as germ-free as possible, and by not touching our hands to our faces when we are out in public.

      I battle the bug by constantly having everyone wash their hands in our house. We use lysol to sanitize things like the phone, door handles, anything that is touched constantly. And lots of water. If we do get a cold or sniffles we only use Kleenex AntiViral tissues. Gotta have that added step.

      One way to steer clear of germs is to make sure you use the little cart wipes at the grocery store. I always carry some hand sanitzer in my purse for public places that I have to actually touch a door handle… it may sound obessive, but do you know how many people do not wash their hands after using the restroom? YUCK!

      We battle the bug by keeping sanitizer with us at all times, and though it works well you still have to wash with soap! Also wipe down buggies and toilet seats with sanitizer!

      Washing hands regularly is a great bug deterrent, as well as eating healthy with lots of vitamin C in fruits and fruit smoothie blended drinks.

      We wash our hands all the time and I’ve taught my children to cover their mouth when they sneeze or cough with their elbow instead of their hands. That way they are not spreading germs by touching things after sneezing or coughing.

      To battle the bug all year long, I’ve become a regular (my friends would say obsessive) user of hand sanitizer – I keep a bottle in my bag, my office, and almost every room of my house. I’ve also made an effort to take Vitamin C and immunity supplements more often, and I’ve noticed that simple changes to my diet, such as eating more fresh fruits and drinking as much water as possible, have made a huge difference in battling the bug!

      409 Erin on July 21st, 2009 5:18 pm
      My husband is a school teacher and comes in contact with germs from his students all day long. To try and keep those germs from infecting the rest of the family we make sure that he has changed his clothes and washed his hands before we kiss and hug him hello when he gets home from work. The kids have a hard time waiting to greet him at the door but it gives us a leg up on staying healthy.
      410 EdV on July 21st, 2009 5:27 pm
      We do all of the standard stuff. Wash our hands often w/ antibacterial soaps, cover our mouths when we cough or sneeze and mostly try to eat healthy so we’re in good shape even if we do get sick.
      411 Susan Ledet on July 21st, 2009 5:52 pm

      We try hard to get everyone in the family to wash hands when they come into the house from outside.
