I'm sure this has been discussed before but what to you do about harp hygiene if anything when you get a cold or flu?
Thanks,
Jay

I had a nasty case of bronchitis this past Jan. I was getting ready for a big show in March. Couldn't honk out more than 3 notes before coughing and gaging. Went on like that till about 2 weeks before show time. It went away eventually. All I did was air out my harps real good after each practice. No problems.

Your body develops antibodies when you have a cold/flu. That's how you eventually get better.
There is no danger of getting sick again by re-exposing yourself from your harps because your body will have those antibodies circulating around long after the germs you inoculated your harps with will have died off.
Don't pass your harps around, though.
