Coughs And Sneezes Spread Diseases

4th October 2011

This was the health promotion slogan from 1948 to encourage people to use handkerchiefs to sneeze into and then disinfect them afterwards. These days we tend to use disposable tissues and disinfect our hands afterwards but the principles are still the same.

If you would like to know more about preventing and treating infections in children then come along to our interactive Health Seminars in Onex, Geneva. Part 1: Fevers and How to Fight Them is on Thursday 3rd November. Part 2: Recognising An Unwell Child is on Thursday 10th November.
