Gross.  Even if does have anti-viral properties, the kid is still walking around covered in snot.  How does that help?

Yuck - What a silly idea!

If you follow the epidemic prevention guidelines, they recommend that you cough into your elbow rather than on your hands, even with a tissue, so there's less of a chance of accidental germ spreading.

It's very difficult to describe the CoughCover because there is nothing to compare it it.  I agree that it would be distasteful to walk around with a snotty sleeve cover but the CoughCover not designed to be used to blow your nose on unless you are two years old and have not yet grasped the concept of nose-blowing.  The point of the CoughCover is to complement the CDC "Cover Your Cough" recommendation that recommends covering your cough with a tissue, disposing of the tissue, and washing your hands for at least 20 seconds with soap and water or as and alternative, cough onto your sleeve. Many children do  not take the time to get a tissue and many adults don't always have an opportunity to get a tissue and wash their hands. With the CoughCover readily available to cough onto, to capture, contain and destroy 99% of all cold and flu viruses, the CoughCover would help prevent the spread of viruses.  If you were sitting on an airplane and the passenger next to you was coughing into their hand or on the same tissue the whole trip, wouldn't you prefer that he or she have the option of using the CoughCover? Food handlers, healthcare workers, daycare workers, school children, almost everyone could all benefit.  Please visit the website at www.coughcouver.com for a clear picture and then comment again. You can also request a sample.  

Hate to burst your bubble Jeanne but most of the medical community is now recommending coughing into the elbow.

Do a google search for cough into your elbow.
