The most effective way to prevent the spread of the swine flu is to practice good hygiene, such as washing your hands often with soap and water for at least 20 seconds, avoiding close contact with people who are sick, and covering your cough or sneeze with a tissue. Additionally, it may be beneficial to stay away from public places where large numbers of people gather, such as schools, workplaces, and shopping malls.
