On average, the seasonal influenza directly costs U.S. employers $10+ billion due to hospitalization bills, lost productivity, and related medical treatment. A non-epidemic flu causes more than 200,000 people to be hospitalized. Here at Princeton University, students who are sick suffer from sub-optimal learning experiences and become socially deprived when avoiding others to prevent spreading the disease.
A large number of these cases are attributed to the human hand. Lackadaisical attitudes towards washing hands combined with the habit of eating food during computer use are a recipe for misery. Healthkey promotes your well-being by automatically sanitizing your keyboard when it is not in use, preventing the transmission of pathogens from your hand to your mouth as well as to other people. With its easy-to-use system, Healthkey keeps you healthy.
