Help stop
the flu &
COVID too
Since 2003, the Tulsa Health Department and Hillcrest HealthCare System have joined together to educate our community about healthy lifestyle habits to prevent the spread of seasonal flu viruses and other communicable diseases, including COVID-19. Don’t Bug Me is a fun campaign designed to equip elementary students with the tools to keep the spread of the germs at a minimum. By following the guidelines and messages set forth in the Don’t Bug Me campaign, you can help stop the flu & coronavirus, too! Download Don’t Bug Me materials here for free.
