Coronavirus Safety Tips for Everyone.

  • Use Healthy Practices to Protect Yourself

  • 1-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.
  • 2-Avoid touching your eyes, nose, and mouth with unwashed hands.
  • 3-Avoid close contact with people who are sick.
  • 4-Wear a cloth face covering to cover your mouth and nose when around others as physical distancing is not always possible. People may spread the infection even prior to having symptoms and you could spread COVID-19 to others even if you do not feel sick. Don’t place coverings on young children under age 2, anyone who has trouble breathing, or is unconscious, incapacitated, or otherwise unable to remove the mask without assistance.
  • 5-Stay home if you are sick, except to get medical care.
  • 6-Cover your nose and mouth with a tissue when coughing or sneezing and throw the tissue away after use. If a tissue isn’t available, cough or sneeze into your elbow or sleeve, not your hands.
  • 7-Clean and disinfect frequently touched surfaces daily. This includes tables, doorknobs, light switches, handles, desks, computers, phones, keyboards, sinks, toilets, faucets, and countertops.
  • 8-If surfaces are dirty, clean them.  Use detergent, or soap and water, prior to disinfecting. Find full information on how to disinfect here.
  • 9-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.
