While Georgia Tech is preparing for a potential pandemic, individuals can also take measures to help reduce the spread of illness. The following actions will help minimize the potential for the spread of the flu and other infectious diseases:
- washing your hands with soap and water
- not touching your eyes, nose, or mouth
- covering your mouth and nose with tissue when sneezing
- staying away from others when you are sick (i.e., not attending classes or going to work)
- avoiding close contact with people who are sick
