e-Bug school activities to teach about infection prevention: sneezing runway
This e-Bug lesson http://e-bug.eu/senior_pack.aspx?cc=e... aims to teach students how poor respiratory hygiene can lead to the spread of microbes and disease. Did you know that microbes can travel up to 1m in a single sneeze!
Students observe on a large scale how far microbes are carried when they sneeze and how many people can be affected. Through a set of trial experiments, students learn that covering your mouth with a tissue when you cough and sneeze helps prevent the spread of infection.
