Corona Virus Safety
- 2. Practice social distancing by keeping a distance of about six feet from others if you must go out in public.
- 3. Wash your hands often with soap and water for at least 20 seconds, especially after being in a public place, or after blowing your nose, coughing or sneezing. If soap and water are not readily available, use a hand sanitizer with at least 60% alcohol.
- 4. Avoid touching your eyes, nose or mouth with unwashed hands.
- 5. Avoid close contact with people who are sick.
- 6. Stay home if you are sick, except to get medical care.
- 7. Cover your nose and mouth with a tissue when coughing or sneezing; throw used tissues in the trash. If a tissue isn’t available, cough or sneeze into your elbow or sleeve, not your hands.
- 8. Clean and disinfect frequently touched surfaces daily. This includes tables, doorknobs, light switches, handles, desks, computers, phones, keyboards, sinks, toilets, faucets and countertops.
- 9. If surfaces are dirty, clean them - use detergent or soap and water prior to disinfection.
- 10. Wear a facemask 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.
