Basics for flu prevention include making sure to frequently wash your hands, cover your mouth when coughing or sneezing, and limit contact with large groups indoors.

Large indoor gatherings are the greatest risk factors for getting the flu since the virus has ample hosts to travel to and spread. Avoid flu season risks with these preventive care tips and make sure you get vaccinated and tested for flu:
