Danger Alert #3: Movie Theaters

In the series, The Places Germs Go, one of the common place where germs reside is the: movie theaters! Moms like me sometimes want to goof off from work and watch a movie with her kid(s) in tow. But do you know that movie theaters house germs as well?

Danger Alert: A movie keeps people in an enclosed place for a couple of hours, making it a prime place for viral infections. The person seated next to you at the cinema may have the colds or flu and not know they are sick because the symptoms may not have appeared yet.

Germ-buster:

• Don’t touch eyes or nose during the movie. Wash hands after leaving the theater.
• Be mindful of others: watch movies at home when ill.
