HOW TO PROTECT YOURSELF & OTHERS

As businesses begin to reopen, doing your part in preventing the spread of COVID-19 remains to be the utmost priority. Here are ways you can protect yourself and those around you in this time, as recommended by the CDC:

 >> Know how it spreads

"The best way to prevent illness is to avoid being exposed to the virus."

Because there is no current vaccine for preventing COVID-19, educating yourself on the way the virus spreads can be the most helpful way to keep you and others safe. The virus is spread from person-to-person through respiratory droplets, which can spread through close contact and talking, coughing, and sneezing. Additionally, recent research has suggested that those without symptoms may be prone to also spreading the virus. Continue doing your part by staying 6 feet away from others and abiding by physical distancing. 

>> Wash your hands often

Washing your hands with soap and water for 20-30 seconds is the easiest way to break down any bacteria or viruses that you may have been in contact with. Avoid touching your eyes, nose, and mouth with unwashed hands, and if soap and water are not readily available, use hand sanitizer with at least 60% alcohol. 

>> Avoid close contact

Keep distance from those who are sick, and avoid close contact with people outside of your home. Those who are asymptomatic can still possibly spread the virus, so it is important to stay at least 6 feet apart from other people. 

>> Utilize face masks/cloth coverings for your nose & mouth

Covering your nose & mouth with a cloth face cover plays a very important role in preventing the spread of the virus to other people. Even if you do not feel that you are sick, wearing a mask will help protect others, especially those who are immunocompromised, by cutting down 95% of the breathing that could send the virus 6 feet away in a room. Avoid handling your mask with unwashed hands and wash it regularly in order to ensure proper usage.
