Leading immunologist Dr. Jenna Macciochi has explained how you can keep your family well-protected this back-to-school season. Prioritise prevention. Minimise your children's risk of falling poorly by practising good hygiene habits. “Encourage them to regularly wash their hands, sneeze/cough into their elbow or cover their nose with a tissue to help reduce exposure to germs.” Get plenty of rest. Rest is essential to keep our immune systems strong. "Prioritise a consistent sleep schedule to support your child’s body's natural defence mechanisms."
