Five Ways We Avoid a Cold When Our Significant Other Is Sick

A recent survey asked people how far they’re willing to go to avoid getting sick.  55% said they’ve used hand sanitizer after shaking someone’s hand, 35% have opened a door knob with their sleeve, 25% have actually asked someone who’s sick to stay away from them and 6% have worn a medical mask in public. 

 

The survey also asked people how they prevent their SIGNIFICANT OTHER from getting them sick.  Here are the top five answers.

 

1.  54% said they avoid kissing them if they’re sick.

2.  39% avoid sex, so 61% don’t?

3.  31% wash their hands more often. 

4.  17% would cancel a date, so they didn’t have to deal with it.

5.  16% avoid sleeping in the same bed together.

 

The survey also found 66% of us would give up social media or alcohol to avoid getting sick.  But it doesn’t say how long you’d have to give it up for.
