Merry, not goofy at all!! I teach yoga and when giving adjustments, I try to avoid touching the practitioners hands...I swear when I do accidentally touch them, I always wind up getting a cold!! Its amazing how many adults do not wash their hands!
Thank you for posting!

I do that also with coat sleeve or anything handy to cover opening a door out in public. Try to wash as often as I can use the wipes they have at the store. I got a viral last Tuesday chills, then sore throat then some coughing tightening in the chest. Pulmo called leviquin and pred in but dont take it unless the mucus is yellow well its not so far just inflammation but did get thicker so upped my saliine nebs.

So sorry to hear you are sick, Kandy! Take care of yourself and beat that bug!

Its got better first time ever at keeping it under control. Thanks Merry!!

@Kandy I hope you are feeling better today and the weekend was a restful one!

Yes. for now, thanks Gretchen I dislike this fall and winter so much with all the bugs out there.

Merry, my sister, who is a nurse at a Pulmonary and Cardiac rehab facility was just bemoaning the fact that some people only use hand sanitizer. She was talking to my children about hand washing and how nothing will ever compare to soap, warm water and friction to get rid of germs!
