FACTS:

• Absence due to colds represent 22 million days lost from work and more than 7.9 million doctor visits a year, according to the National Center for Health Statistics.
• Viruses, which are transmitted through the air or person-to-person contact, can also be transmitted on objects. People can become infected simply by touching a contaminated surface.
• Workers in the United States miss an average of 1.5 days per year because of the flu and that could cost businesses $20 billion in lost productivity according to Harvard University health economist David Cutler.
• Office toilet seats have 49 germs per square inch, desk tops have almost 21,000 germs per square inch and phones 25,000 germs per square inch.
• 80 percent of the infections you get are transmitted through the environment.
• Coughing and sneezing can leave behind a minefield of viruses that can live on surfaces up to three days.
