This giveaway is now closed. Thanks for stopping by. The winner is Deborah Wellenstein. Congrats!
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
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

Great giveaway, thanks so much.

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.

AntiViral sounds like a good idea for a Kleenex product! I only use Kleenex tissues! Nothing else is a kleenex to me!
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.
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.
Drink lots of water and orange juice as well for vitamin C.
I wash my hands all the time but I also use this spray all over carts and other things people put hands all over

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.

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. 😛
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!
[email protected]
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.

Washing our hands all the time seems to work best at keeping away the bugs.
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.

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!
I think the best advice ever is frequent handwashing for everyone. Keeping wipes handy, make this a no brainer.
I’m a fanatic about hand-washing and I also frequently wipe-down commonly handled items in the house, such as the telephone, faucet handles, banisters.

I battle the bug by coughing and sneezing into the crook of my arm instead of my hands.
It’s hard to battle the bug but we try to keep it at bay by taking vitamins, washing hands, using cart wipes, and staying in if someone does get sick.
I definitely think it helps to stock up on the vitamin C and OJ! what a wonderful contest – thanks for posting!
I fight the bug all year by building up my resistance….a multi-vitamin every day, and I rarely get sick with anything.
hand sanitizer addiction 🙂
I am constantly washing my hands or using hand sanitizer. For my son, I always wash his hands when we get home from any kind of outing/errand etc. and use Wet Ones or hand sanitizer while we’re out.
We fight the bug all year long by keeping our hands clean. We wash our hands every chance we get. We also use hand sanitizer while on the go.
Wash your hands, cover your mouth when you sneeze, stop touching everything when you are shopping etc. take your vitamins.
We loaded up on Vitamin C and make sure that we are washing our hands frequently.

I try to wash my hands frequently and avoid touching my face as much as I can. I also try not to adjust my hair during the day, because obviously my hair can fall and touch my face too.
I always keep a big can of Lysol on my desk at work to spray whenever someone sick visits my office.
We try to wash hands as often as possible. And to eat healthy and exercise. We aren’t TOO social so we aren’t in large groups too often. oF course when we travel on the plane, then we get concerned that we’ll pick up all sorts of germs…but…that’s a chance we take, rather than miss an important event that’ s across the country!
Lots of water and washing hands!
We try to eat right, exercise daily, get a good night’s sleep, and wash hands as appropriate.
I probably don’t really do as much as I can, but I do try and wash my hands whenever I need too and staying away from really sick people so I don’t catch it…if I can of course. 🙂

We battle the bug in unique ways. My grandfather never had a sick day in his life and attributed it to drinking ditch water as a boy and building up his immune system. I encourage our kids to play as much outside as possible. We are also sure to wash up for meal times.
We have many ways but one important one is we use antibacterial wipes for public tables, grocery carts, water fountain handles.
Thank you

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!
I’m following you on twitter (guettel78), and I tweeted about the giveaway: http://twitter.com/guettel78/status/2752367823

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.
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.
