disease ( -19) advice for the public
The Red Cross recommends following common sense steps to help prevent the spread of any respiratory virus
📌Wash your hands often with soap and water for at least 20 seconds, especially after being in a public place, or after blowing your nose, coughing or sneezing. If soap and water are not readily available, use a hand sanitizer with at least 60% alcohol.
📌Avoid touching your eyes, nose or mouth with unwashed hands.
📌Avoid close contact with people who are sick.
Put distance between yourself and other people if COVID-19 is spreading in your community.
📌Stay home if you are sick, except to get medical care.
📌Cover your nose and mouth with a tissue when coughing or sneezing; throw used tissues in the trash. If a tissue isn’t available, cough or sneeze into your elbow or sleeve, not your hands.
📌Clean and disinfect frequently touched surfaces daily. This includes tables, doorknobs, light switches, handles, desks, computers, phones, keyboards, sinks, toilets and countertops.
If surfaces are dirty, clean them - use detergent or soap and water prior to disinfection. Full information on how to disinfect found here.
📌Wear a facemask if you are sick. You should wear a facemask when you are around other people (e.g., sharing a room or vehicle) and before you enter a healthcare provider’s office.
Take necessary preventive measure to take care of you and your family.
