Are you "that guy" when it comes to the flu?  You know,  the one that goes about their daily activities when you are sick.

According to the National Foundation for Infectious Diseases, nearly two-thirds of people who had the flu in the past three years did.

That's why the organization has created the "Are You That Guy?" influenza education campaign, to remind all of us to practice behavior that will help limit the spread of the virus.

Your best defense against the flu is getting vaccinated.

Also keep hand sanitizer and tissues with you at all times, for yourself, or others who may be coughing or sneezing.

And avoid touching your face, it may help keep you from getting sick if your hands have germs on them.
