  • People have been urged to remember "good respiratory etiquette" to slow the transmission of the winter illnesses and reduce pressures on the health service. The Isle of Man's public health directorate said it was important to remember tips including coughing and sneezing into a tissue or the crook of your arm.

The article from MSN, titled "People Urged to Protect Against Winter Illnesses," emphasizes the importance of taking preventive measures against common winter ailments like the flu, colds, and respiratory infections. It highlights the increased risk during the colder months due to more time spent indoors, which facilitates the spread of viruses. The piece advises on several protective strategies including vaccinations, particularly for flu and the updated COVID-19 booster, good hygiene practices like regular hand washing, wearing masks in crowded places, and maintaining physical distancing where possible. Additionally, it stresses the significance of a healthy lifestyle, including adequate rest, nutrition, and hydration to bolster the immune system. The article also mentions the potential strain on healthcare systems during winter and encourages individuals to take personal responsibility for their health to reduce the burden on medical services.
