Coronavirus Prevention Do’s
If you’re looking to help prevent the further spread of COVID-19 in your community, here are some things you can do:
Wash your hands frequently for 20+ seconds with soap and water
Stay at home and limit contact with others
Routinely clean frequently touched spaces in your home
Seek medical help if you’re suffering from a fever, cough or difficulty breathing
Limit contact with pets and animals
Self-quarantining and social distancing is the best protocol you can follow at this point, especially since many areas are enforcing lockdowns and shelter in place orders.
Stay clean, wash your hands, avoid touching your face and disinfect high-traffic areas around your home as often as you can.
Coronavirus Prevention Don’ts
Make sure you take the precautions to avoid doing each of these things to help prevent the spread of the disease:
Don’t go to crowded areas
Don’t touch your face
Don’t be in close contact with others
Don’t ignore symptoms
Don’t leave your home, especially if sick
Avoid mingling with others, touching your face often and leaving your home, especially if you’re showing any cold/flu/COVID-19 symptoms.
Social Distancing – What You Need to Know
One major coronavirus prevention tactic that is being encouraged – and even enforced – in many places in the world is social distancing.
Social distancing is an act of self-isolation to prevent and control the spread of person-to-person contagious and infectious diseases.
The objective of social distancing is to reduce the probability of contact between persons carrying an infection, and others who are not infected, so as to minimize disease transmission, morbidity and ultimately, mortality.
Self-quarantining, whether you have symptoms or not, staying home, and avoiding any non-essential in-person interaction is key to helping make sure the spread of the disease is contained and ultimately stopped.
