October 1st is Child Health Day, but the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP), once made quiet an effort to make the whole month of October mindful of Children’s Health issues. October is a great month for educational initiatives as children have settled into the school-routine and are still fresh in the academic year.
In honor of this event (and the fact that I recently was hanging out with two children with colds), please remember to cough and sneeze into your sleeve:
Cough and Sneeze Into Your Sleeve |
People in polite society do not cough into their sleeves. Such behavior is frowned upon. The purpose of this video is to make coughing into one’s sleeve fashionable and even patriotic. It’s the right thing, the polite thing to do.
Not your hand, as you’re just putting germs onto the appendage you touch everything with, and that just doesn’t make sense.
So remember: Cough and Sneeze into your Sleeve!
