Hey guys @perkyyoung here, Cleanliness they say is next to Godless, for you to be free from infectious diseases you have to form the habit of washing your hands all the time, as a health worker, a patient or a healthy individual, the hand washing with soup and water for at least 20 sec followed by hand drying with paper towel, if you're a health worker wash your hands inbetween handling of patients.
These goes a long way in preventing many deadly and infectious diseases.
Most people makes the mistake of sharing objects with other people maybe relatives or friends, but it's actually a very dangerous thing to do as sharing objects like toothbrush, razors, handkerchiefs, towels and nail clippers are all ways through which we get infections.
Micro organisms are so small that you can not see them with naked eyes, but Only with the use microscopes, so be aware that many bacterias, viruses, and fungi can be present on those materials that you share with your friends, these things can infect you with diseases, get your own private materials and keep it clean.
Many people mostly children after touching different things puts their hands in their nose and starts picking it, avoid these because it's very dangerous, your actually transferring the bacterials in your hands into your body, giving them an avenue were they can feed and start harming you.
Do cover your mouth when your coughing or sneezing this is to prevent the spread of infections, most time disease might be present in the body but have not manifested any symptoms, when you cough or sneeze they can mix-up with the air, and these droplets of micro-organisms can spread through this Means.
Cook your food well before eating. Check very well the things you think are clean might still contain micro organisms in it, so even after washing your vegetables and other things your using to cook just make you cook you food for reasonable period of time.
So as to kill all the micro organisms present in food.
Exercise caution with animals, many diseases can be gotten from animals, keep your children away from animal faeces.
If you have pets do vaccinate them to avoid deadly diseases.
Droplets from animals can be very infectious keep away from them.
