A recent survey from the @CleanInstitute found that most Americans now clean with health in mind, not just as a chore. During respiratory illness season, more patients may come to you for advice on how to avoid getting sick, including cleaning their homes.

Which means patients may be coming to you for advice about how to avoid getting sick, including how they can clean surfaces to prevent the spread of germs." The AAFP logo and a right-pointing arrow are at the bottom.

Sanitizing reduces germs to safe levels. Disinfecting kills bacteria and viruses. The AAFP logo is at the bottom left. The background is dark blue with illustrated germs.

Today and every day, store laundry packets for safety, not decor. Keep them up, out of children’s reach,
and in their original packaging. A safe laundry room always comes before aesthetics. Prevent accidental
exposure and keep #PacketsUp!
