Cover your cough and sneeze

As well as washing your hands regularly, covering your coughs and sneezes helps stop the spread of germs.

• COVER your mouth and nose with a tissue when you cough or sneeze.
• Put your used tissue in the rubbish BIN.
• If you don’t have a tissue, cough or sneeze into your upper sleeve or elbow, NOT YOUR HANDS.
• WASH your hands with soap and running water. Dry your hands thoroughly with a disposable paper towel or hand dryer.
