Mediaplanet and Procter & Gamble's Puffs® Tissues Team Up to Help Families and Noses in Need this Cold and Flu Season
In partnership with Procter & Gamble's Puffs Tissues, Mediaplanet announces the launch of this year's "Fighting the Flu" campaign, helping people of all ages this cold and flu season stop the spread of germs through preventative measures, proper flu care, managing symptoms, and tips to beat the bug.
NEW YORK, Dec. 6, 2018 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- It's easy to get sick during cold and flu season, and when one person catches the flu the rest of the family follows. According to the CDC, someone with the flu can spread it to others up to about 6 feet away. Most experts think that flu viruses spread mainly by droplets made when people with the flu cough, sneeze or talk. While most people recover from the flu within seven to ten days, it can spread from infected people to others through the air and close personal contact, such as shaking hands, or touching infected surfaces, like door handles or sink faucets, increasing your chances of catching the bug this winter.
While being sick is not fun, the things that comfort us most - like pajamas, movies and chicken soup - are there to lift our spirits some. This winter, Puffs, the ultimate nose soother, is spotlighting the silver lining comforts of being sick, so you can get well sooner. In order to best protect your nose while battling cold and flu symptoms, Puffs urges people to avoid a sore nose by reaching for a soft, soothing tissue, such as Puffs Plus Lotion. While noses can turn sore and red from tissue blowing, Puffs Plus Lotion is dermatologist tested to be gentle on sensitive skin, and its touch of lotion helps comfort and sooth irritated noses better than ordinary tissues can. Because a nose in need deserves the comfort of Puffs, indeed.
