Preventing the Coronavirus
Information regarding Coronavirus (COVID-19) is being updated frequently. To stay abreast of the most up-to-date information on COVID-19, visit the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) website.
Simple things we can do to help keep ourselves and others safe:
- Wash your hands frequently with soap and water for at least 20 seconds, and frequently use hand sanitizer when a sink is not available. Hand sanitizer does not work when hands are soiled.
- Avoid touching your eyes, nose, and mouth.
- Frequently disinfect high-touch surfaces such as doorknobs, counters, and handles.
- Cover your coughs and sneezes with a tissue or in your sleeve.
- Do not go out in public or to work if you are sick with a respiratory illness.
Wear a mask:
Wearing a mask helps protect others in your community. Wear masks in public settings, like on public transportation, at events and gatherings, and anywhere you will be around other people.
- Choose masks that have two or more layers
- Make sure your mask covers your nose and mouth
- Wash your mask regularly
