Know How it Spreads

1.       There is currently no vaccine to prevent coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19).

2.       The best way to prevent illness is to avoid being exposed to this virus.

3.       The virus is thought to spread mainly from person-to-person.
    1. Between people who are in close contact with one another (within about 6 feet).
    2. Through respiratory droplets produced when an infected person coughs or sneezes.
4.       These droplets can land in the mouths or noses of people who are nearby or possibly be inhaled into the lungs.


Must take steps to protect yourself

 Illustration: washing hands with soap and water

Clean your hands often

1.       Wash your hands often with soap and water for at least 20 seconds especially after you have been in a public place or after blowing your nose, coughing, or sneezing.

2.       If soap and water are not readily available, use a hand sanitizer that contains at least 60% alcohol. Cover all surfaces of your hands and rub them together until they feel dry.

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


Avoid close contact

Wear a facemask if you are sick

Wear a facemask if you are sick


1.       If you are sick: You should wear a facemask when you are around other people (e.g., sharing a room or vehicle) and before you enter a healthcare provider’s office. If you are not able to wear a facemask (for example, because it causes trouble breathing), then you should do your best to cover your coughs and sneezes, and people who are caring for you should wear a facemask if they enter your room. Learn what to do if you are sick.

2.       If you are NOT sick: You do not need to wear a facemask unless you are caring for someone who is sick (and they are not able to wear a facemask). Facemasks may be in short supply and they should be saved for caregivers.

Must clean and disinfect
