Every holiday season, millions of Americans travel to spend time with loved ones. Traveling and holiday get-together bring people close together and provide an ideal way for illness to spread. To help travelers avoid the flu this holiday season, CDC has launched a public awareness campaign to educate travelers about staying healthy.
- • Travel only when you feel well
- • Wash your hands often
- • Cover coughs and sneezes with a tissue or sleeve
- • Get vaccinated for flu (if you are in a priority group)
