Back to publicising the need to wash AND dry your hands properly.  We had to do this at work some years ago when there was an outbreak of another cold virus type disease.  Coughing into the crook of your elbow rather than into your hand and then touching something or someone with that hand must be a better idea than putting your hand over your mouth when you cough which was what I remember we were taught as children.

You can recognise someone who has been taught to wash their hands properly as they are in the health service.  It's more than just sticking your hands under the tap.  Handgel isn't the answer against everything btw - it definitely doesn't work against Norovirus which is also around.
