Germ Busters in Action!

Let us test your germ-fighting knowledge with some real-life scenarios!

Scenario 1: You just finished playing at the park and your friend offers you a snack. What do you do first?

Answer: Wash your hands (or use hand sanitizer) before eating! Playground equipment is covered in germs from many hands.

Scenario 2: You feel a sneeze coming while sitting next to your friend in class.

Answer: Quick! Turn away from your friend and sneeze into your elbow. Then wash your hands when you can.

Scenario 3: Your friend offers to share their water bottle.

Answer: Politely say no thank you. Sharing drinks spreads germs. Use your own water bottle.

Scenario 4: You touched a railing at the store and then feel an itch on your nose.

Answer: Do not touch your nose! Find a sink and wash your hands first, or use hand sanitizer. Railings are touched by hundreds of people.
