Beating the common cold

10 plus 10 equals … less colds.

Common cold viruses can get on our hands when we touch infected hands, surfaces and objects. When we put our unwashed hands in our mouth or rub our eyes and nose with them we can infect ourselves with a cold virus. Correct hand washing is one of the most effective ways to help prevent the spread of colds. Wash hands thoroughly, especially before eating food and after blowing the nose, coughing or sneezing.
 
Here’s how:
  • 1. Lather with liquid soap for 10 seconds
  • 2. Rinse with running water for 10 seconds
  • 3. Dry hands. Antibiotics don’t work on viruses so they won’t stop a cold from spreading.
SOME ADVICE FOR OUR PARENTS ON COMMON COLDS
 
To stay home or not?
Children with a cold who feel unwell should stay at home until they are feeling better. However, there is no need for them to stay at home if they feel well enough to play and participate in regular activities despite their runny nose or cough. The viruses that cause common colds may infect other people before and after symptoms show.
 
People with colds:
  • can be infectious before any symptoms show
  • are most infectious in the first 2–4 days of cold symptoms
  • can continue to be infectious after most symptoms have gone away, sometimes for up to 3 weeks.
Children tend to get 5–10 colds per year. This means with common cold viruses it is extremely difficult to say when a child could infect others.
