How can I help protect myself and others?

There are simple everyday preventive actions to help prevent the spread of respiratory viruses.
These include:

• Wash your hands often with soap and water for at least 20 seconds. Use an alcohol-based hand sanitizer that contains at least 60% alcohol if soap and water are not available.

• Avoid close contact (at least 3 feet away) with people who are sick.

• Avoid touching your eyes, nose, and mouth with unwashed hands.

• Cover your cough or sneeze with a flexed elbow or tissue, then throw the tissue in the trash.

• Clean and disinfect frequently touched objects and surfaces.

• Stay home and contact your primary care provider if you develop symptoms, have been in close contact with a person known to have COVID-19, influenza, or other communicable illnesses or if you have recently traveled from an area with widespread or ongoing community spread of COVID-19.
