With many new strains of influenza enveloping our planet, we need to be more cautious about the entire thing. Changing weather patterns adds up to this chaos! We are aware that prevention is better than cure. How do we protect our little ones and families? Well, personal hygiene plays an imperative role. Wearing masks at crowded places also helps. Washing our hands with a sanitizer while outdoors and keeping our surroundings clean helps as well. Most importantly, we must never leave home without a handkerchief. It's not just protecting ourselves but caring for others, especially very young children, the sick and the aged. Let us be more aware of our surroundings and lead healthier lives.
