Protect yourself from Covid-19

 

Maintain 6 feet distance

• Inside your home: Avoid close contact with people who are sick.
  • If possible, maintain 6 feet between the person who is sick and other household members.
• Outside your home: Put 6 feet of distance between yourself and people who don’t live in your household.
  • Remember that some people without symptoms may be able to spread virus.

Wear a mask

• Everyone 2 years and older should wear masks in public.

• Masks should be worn in addition to staying at least 6 feet apart, especially around people who don’t live with you.

• If someone in your household is infected, people in the household should take precautions including wearing masks to avoid spread to others.

• Wash your hands or use hand sanitizer before putting on your mask.

• Wear your mask over your nose and mouth and secure it under your chin.

• Fit the mask snugly against the sides of your face, slipping the loops over your ears or tying the strings behind your head.

• If you have to continually adjust your mask, it doesn’t fit properly, and you might need to find a different mask type or brand.

• Make sure you can breathe easily.

Avoid crowds 

• Being in crowds like in restaurants, bars, fitness centers, or movie theaters puts you at higher risk for COVID-19.
• Avoid indoor spaces that do not offer fresh air from the outdoors as much as possible.
• If indoors, bring in fresh air by opening windows and doors, if possible.
