#Eureka: Hussey Copper says no to germs with new products
Let’s face the facts: Flu and cold season is upon us, thanks to our unpredictable weather. So we don’t need to be exposed to anything else. Hussey Copper can help you cut down possible exposure to bacteria linked to MRSA and other infections.
