How to Avoid Getting Sick During Finals Week
It seems that whenever it’s finals week, I start to get a little sick.
I’m not sure if it’s because of the stress – or the late nights studying – but it happens every time.
Here are some helpful tips to avoid getting sick during finals:
- Disinfect your desk, keyboard, mouse, pen, phone and anything you are in close contact with.
- Wash your hands regularly
- Don’t touch your eyes, nose, or mouth
- Stay away from anyone who is sick
- Take vitamins E, A, C and B complex
- Don’t smoke
- Get at least 8 hours of sleep a night.
- Drink plenty of water.
- Get a flu shot

I think just being in amongst the stresses and strains of finals week can cause a lot of sicknesses, some of which cannot be avoided. So, every precaution should be taken to prevent this. Washing your hands more often is something we all should do.

All good advice except on the flu shot. I’m not sure it works in such a short period of time (week) and some people feel queezy for a day after getting it.
