Abstract

A method for preventing a viral related infection includes obtaining a sample from a person, assaying the sample to determine whether the person has been previously infected with a virus, and if the person has not been previously infected, providing the person with at least one sensor positioned to detect when a person'"'"'s hand approaches a predetermined position related to the ground or their own body. By warning the person of undesired hand-to- face contacts, the person is able to reduce the incidence of viral related infections.

Claims

1. A method of preventing hand-to-face contact comprising:

Providing a person at least one sensor which detects the position of his/her hand,

specifying a position of the hand that would be too close to the person'"'"'s face,

warning said person if his/her hand approaches the position specified,

whereby the step of reducing of hand-to-face contacts by said person reduces the risk of viral related infections or other undesirable effect.
