Here are your answers:

The prevent gaining any diseases I would suggest: 1. wearing gloves to prevent coming in contact with the disease. 2. Wear protection which would mean a suit which would prevent any sort of disease to come in contact with your skin. 3. Make sure to wash yourself before entering, it's better not to infect your surroundings with your germs which could causes to disease to become more contagious and more dangerous.

There are many health precautions you can take, including using in-effective spray, wash your hand with soap, wearing health gear, etc.. It's important to know and keep up on illness or infection in the workplace.

Hope this helps!
