6. You’re a close talker
Try to avoid standing within, let’s say, five feet of someone who is sick. Also, keep the conversation short. The longer you stay, the higher the chances of getting a cold. In general, it’s best to keep your distance because you can’t really tell if a person is ill or not. Take COVID-19, for example… Some people are asymptomatic.
7. You bite your nails
Stop biting your nails! It’s a bad and rude habit that could bring you more than just the mockery of others. You could end up with a cold by biting your nails. According to Dr. Mathis, nail-biting, therefore face touching, welcomes micro-organism to enter your body via eyes, mouth, and nose.
Under your fingernails, there could be a ton of micro-organism that can easily invade your system when biting your nails.
