I really would like to know if our school, and public buses are gettig a cleaning after shifts. I believe it would be so much better for our community that this got done. I know that lots of places are laying off, or closing so that causes short staff; but there needs to be a way to get this done.

I'm a teacher and I'm always washing my hands all day long.

It's germ season

The holiday season is upon us, and your calendar is full of gatherings with friends and family. But oftentimes uninvited guests tag along: germs. And this year – with fears of H1N1 and other illnesses on many people’s minds – it’s particularly smart to minimize your exposure.  
 
Use this list as a guide to know where germs tend to hang out. The point is not to avoid these situations, just be aware and try to stay healthy. Remember to have fun — and wash your hands! (Text: Meredith Darlington/MNN)
