Get Prepared this Winter with the Achoo by Kleenex Cold and Flu Predictor-Giveaway

Saskatchewan was just hit with its first big snowfall of the winter and that means that the season of shovelling snow, ski pants and sneezes is here once more. For the most part, my boys are quite hearty and don’t get sick too often. But already this year I’ve noticed that Zackary and Benjamin have had a few more flus, sniffles and fevers than they usually do. What can I do to help them stay healthy this winter?

Kleenex has the answer, with its ingenious new achoo by Kleenex Cold and Flu Predictor. The website tracks illnesses as they’re reported and using the latest Centers for Disease Control (CDC) data and a proprietary forecasting model developed by a global network of professors, top business leaders and highly trained analysts, calculates the risk of illness for the coming weeks.

Currently, my small town is at a Medium risk level, but in three weeks, the chances of illness are expected to increase to a High level. Knowing that, I’ll be able to take extra precautions to help keep my boys healthy. Extra fluids, plenty of antioxidant-rich fruits and vegetables and a daily multivitamin are going to be on our schedule in the coming weeks!
