Abstract:
A method for preventing obesity related to infection by an adipogenic adenovirus includes obtaining a sample from a person, assaying the sample to determine whether the person has been previously infected with an adipogenic adenovirus, and if the person has not been previously infected, providing the person with at least one sensor positioned to detect when a person's hand approaches a predetermined distance from the person's face. By warning the person of undesired hand-to-face contacts, the person is able to reduce the incidence of obesity related infections. Other embodiments are directed to a kit for preventing obesity caused by infection with an adipogenic adenovirus, such kit including a container for assaying an agent indicating the presence of antibodies to Ad-36, and a sensor positioned on an item selected from the group consisting of one of a hat, a writing instrument, eye glasses, a belt, sunglasses, a bra, a shirt, and a tie.

Claim (Index 1):
A kit for preventing infection by a virus, comprising: a container for assaying an agent indicating the presence of antibodies to a predetermined virus, said agent present in a biological sample selected from the group consisting of a body fluid, feces, blood, and saliva, at least one sensor positioned near a person's face; a signal generating device that employs a signal operatively associated with said at least one sensor; a semiconductor device programmed to select one of a plurality of predetermined distances of proximity so that a person's hand triggers the signal generating device to warn a person that their hand is in the proximity of their face; and a transmitter for communicating from the sensor to a recording device the occurrence of said signal, said recording device recording the occurrence of said signal to indicate the number of hand-to-face contacts by said person, thereby reducing the risk that virus related infections will be acquired by said person;\n wherein said at least one sensor includes two spaced sensors; and wherein said semiconductor device is adapted to monitor movement of a hand of a person within at least 12 inches from the face of the person.
