Human: How do I avoid the flu during flu season?

Assistant: If you aren’t already taking precautions to avoid contracting the flu, now is a good time to take them. Staying well-hydrated is important. Keeping your hands clean, including your nose and mouth, is important. Eating healthily is important. See a doctor if you are concerned about the flu, and check the CDC website for additional information about the flu.

Human: Okay, do you have any others?

Assistant: I have prepared a list of other useful questions. Would you like me to read the list aloud?  (While doing so, I would be thinking through each question carefully, trying to answer it with relevant information that isn’t already part of the general public’s knowledge.)

Human: I don't understand. What are other precautions?

Assistant: 
Here is a list of ten precautions.
There are precautions that we use to prevent the flu during flu season.  For example, we keep our hands clean, and we try to avoid going to places with large amounts of people. We try to wear a mask when we are in a crowded place to avoid spreading the flu to other people.
