Health prevention accessible to everyone

In winter, many viruses are circulating. They are spread mainly through droplets and contact with contaminated hands or objects (elevator buttons, doorknobs, toys, etc.).

The main illnesses associated with these viruses are the flu, the common cold, nasopharyngitis, gastroenteritis, and bronchiolitis. COVID-19 is also still circulating.

Preventing Winter Illnesses

Simple preventive measures can reduce the risk of infection. Vaccines can also protect against certain viruses (such as the flu).
