Does picking your nose affect swine flu?

If you pick your nose you can move the virus from the environment directly into your nose which will almost assure that you will catch the virus if your hands have been exposed to the virus. Likewise, if you have the flu and pick your nose, you will be much more likely to pass the virus to other people. Not only is picking your nose improper manners, but it is an unhealthy practice. You can get nasal saline spray at the drug store or grocery store to use to clear your nose of dried mucus. It is much more sanitary and you will be less likely to tear or scratch the mucous tissue, too.
