COVID patients are also being diagnosed with mental illness, new strains of the virus are spreading faster, and the best ways to clean your cloth mask. 

This year, Americans have been more vigilant than ever before about personal health and hygiene. As the cold and flu season approaches, we are wearing masks, washing our hands, and using hand sanitizer more frequently. But our hands are not the only parts of our body that we should be sanitizing.   

Germs can spread via respiratory droplets that land in the nose or transfer from hands to the nose. Sanitizing the nose can help reduce the spread of germs and the risk of infection by interrupting the cycle of contamination between hands and nose.
