From 2001-2011 Hall never once missed a day of work for being sick (though, she did miss a few days in January 2012 due to food poisoning) . She attributes her miraculous record of health to her own vivacity, positive attitude, choral students, and her consistent use of Listerine for its antiseptic, preventative capability .
