The number of states severely hit by the flu has more than doubled since last week and the illness is hitting the western part of the nation particularly hard, federal health officials reported Thursday. CNN's Dr. Sanjay Gupta shares tips to keep you from catching the flu. "Wipe down your keyboard and your phone," he suggests. "Ninety-nine percent of germs will be taken care of by this. Just to put it in perspective, your keyboard and your phone have 400 times the number of germs as a toilet seat."
Dr. Sanjay Gupta is a medical correspondent for CNN and appears on CNN's "American Morning" with the latest medical news, health tips, and more to help viewers understand the world of medicine and how it relates to them.
