Covid-19 Information

1. Wear a Mask
   • Wear a well-fitted mask in crowded or enclosed spaces.
   • Ensure it covers both your nose and mouth.

   • Wash hands frequently with soap and water for at least 20 seconds.
   • Use hand sanitizer with at least 60% alcohol if soap is unavailable.
3. Maintain Social Distance
   • Stay at least 6 feet apart from others, especially in crowded areas.
   • Avoid close contact with people who are sick.
4. Get Vaccinated
   • Stay up to date with COVID-19 vaccines and boosters.
   • Vaccination helps reduce the risk of severe illness.
5. Clean and Disinfect

When You Are Sick

1. Stay Home If You Feel Sick
   • Monitor for symptoms like fever, cough, and shortness of breath.
   • Get tested and follow local health guidelines if you have symptoms.
2. Cover Coughs and Sneezes
   • Use a tissue or your elbow, not your hands.
   • Dispose of used tissues properly and sanitize your hands afterward.
3. Return to Normal Activities when, for at least 24 hours, both are true
   • Your symptoms are getting better overall, and
   • You have not had a fever (and are not using fever-reducing medication).
     • When you go back to your normal activities, take added precaution over the next 5 days, such as taking additional steps for cleaner air, hygiene, masks, physical distancing, and/or testing when you will be around other people indoors. This is especially important to protect people with factors that increase their risk of severe illness from respiratory viruses.
