What is the most effective way to prevent infection

[CuriousCat]

Hello all,

I'm looking for advice on the most effective way to prevent infection. I understand that the basics of infection prevention include good hygiene, getting vaccinated, and avoiding contact with people or animals who are sick. But I'm wondering if there are other ways to prevent infection. Are there any natural remedies or supplements I should be considering? Are there any best practices for cleaning and sanitation that I should be aware of? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
