Dr. Zoe's In The House!

Sharing is caring, but not when it comes to germs!  Wash your hands!
Hiya, Friends!  It's me, Dr. Zoe, and today, I have some tips for how to get through Cold-n-Flu Season!

As you can imagine, this is a germy time of year around St. Laffalotatus- Mercy-Mercy Hospital.  Well, it's a pretty germy time everywhere.

Oh my goodness, Friends.  Germs lurk on door-handles, grocery cart handles, computer keyboards, coffee cups, pencils, pens, money, and even in the very air.

You know that you've gotta wash your hands, to prevent yourself from getting sick.  Eat well and keep hydrated, too.

Sometimes, though, despite your best efforts, you're gonna catcha cold.  It happens to all of us, Friends.  When you do catcha cold, it's really important that you don't spread germs to others.  Stay home if you can.  Cough and sneeze into your elbow- remember: "Use your wing!"  If you know you've coughed or sneezed on something, use a Clorox Wipe to wipe it off.  Keep hand sanitizer and Kleenexes on you, so you're prepared for any eventuality. 

And for Pete's Sake, if you're REALLY sick, like you're running a fever, your eyes are bright red, stuff's coming out your nose, and you keep coughing, seriously, seriously, STAY THE HECK HOME!!!  Nobody will think you're a hero for going in to work like that.  Nobody's gonna praise you for your extreme dedication.  You know why?  Because first of all, if you woulda just stayed home and rested, chances are, you'd get over whatever ails ya in a day or two off work, but since you went and went to work Sick For Real, you'll wear yourself down and prolong your own illness and your own misery.  PLUS, while you're working at work while Sick For Real, you've sprayed your germs all over everything and will likely get all your coworkers sick, as well as anybody you come in contact with.  That's not the way to win Employee of the Year, People.

Remember, when in doubt, just wash your hands.  Give yourself some TLC.  Don't share your germs.

I'll see ya tomorrow, Friends.  I love ya lots!  Muah!
