Many viruses and bacteria are transmitted through the air, among other ways through sneezing and coughing. Good cough and sneeze hygiene consists of: Coughing with your face turned away. Cough and sneeze into the inside of your elbow. If you do cough into your hand, use a paper tissue. Use a paper tissue once and then throw it away in the trash can. After coughing, wash your hands with soap and water or disinfect them with hand sanitizer. See also Hand hygiene & personal hygiene for employees | SRI guidelines.
