The other day, there was a topic of "flu" in "Practical Business English" of NHK radio program.
As I expected, "hard-washing" seems to be the most effective way to prevent infect from flu.
In my case, I always carry an alcohol spray can, and put spray on tips of my fingers.
Thought I don't know whether it is effective, I have been able to avoid the infections.

In the radio program, one of the methods how to wash hands was introduced,
"Washing hand with singing "Happy Birthday" by the end of the song.”
So I tried it soon.
At the day that I came back home late at night, I was singing a song alone at the washing stand.
At that time, I could hear a small and fearful voice from behind.
"Hey, my darling? Are you O.K.?"
