What Are Five Things Everyone Can Do?
Like so many of the easily-transmissible diseases and viruses we prepare for every day in our communities, everyone can prepare with a few simple reminders:
- Wash your hands frequently.
- Cover your mouth when you sneeze.
- Maintain “social distances” of a few feet near people who show symptoms.
- Avoid touching your eyes, nose and mouth.
- Stay home and get medical attention if you are sick.
