This is not a scrub brush...



I know that a lot of people are trying to hunker down and spend some quality time in a bathtub full of hand sanitizer, but there are alternatives.  One thingaccording to the Mayo Clinic, that helps us resist viral infections, is aerobic exercise.  (The list includes some other good reasons to get moving, too!)

More good news:  there are lots of ways to get some aerobic exercise without going to a crowded, potentially germ-infested class.  People who are still willing to go outside can walk, jog, run, bike, rollerblade, swim, or hike.

If we really don’t want to leave the house, we still can manage.  Kitchen dancing is a thing.  Stair repeats work (bonus points if you carry laundry up and down at the same time!).  And, of course, there are exercise videos on tape, DVD, and that swanky internet thingie.

Bottom line, we could say that sweat kills germs.  Go play.
