At work I wash my hands after going to the bathroom then I use the paper towels to turn off the faucet and open any doors between the bathroom and my desk. That way I am not touching any germ-infested doorknobs. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-stay-healthy-when-everyone-around-you-is-sick#post-1248552 Wed, 27 Nov 2013 22:24:29 +0000 boots 1248552@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Sheer determination and a solid immune system. My husband and LO had that wicked stomach bug that's been going around last week. I thankfully somehow avoided it.</p> <p>I take a vitamin, drink lots of water, but other than that I don't really do anything. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-stay-healthy-when-everyone-around-you-is-sick#post-1248531 Wed, 27 Nov 2013 22:09:39 +0000 BeachMama 1248531@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ugh, I'm on my second cold (soon to be sinus infection) in 2 months. Ever since I had LO I get sick all the time. Pretty much any time she has a cold, I get it too. Last year she started daycare in October and I feel like we were constantly sick from Oct to Feb.</p> <p>For those that use Airborne, do you take it regularly or just when you're starting to feel sick? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-stay-healthy-when-everyone-around-you-is-sick#post-1248323 Wed, 27 Nov 2013 20:29:41 +0000 Aimed 1248323@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>purell like its going out of fashion, spray lysol in peoples faces (not really but tempting) I do spray lysol on doorknobs and light switches and take emergen-c and hope for the best. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-stay-healthy-when-everyone-around-you-is-sick#post-1248058 Wed, 27 Nov 2013 18:19:46 +0000 Freckles 1248058@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Wash my hands, keep my distance, and drink lots of water.
