Here’s how you can prevent getting infected by COVID-19:

With the continual spread of the coronavirus or COVID19, it is better to stay vigilant and follow these simple ways to prevent yourself from getting the disease.

• Wash your hands with soap or use a hand sanitizer that contains alcohol with at least 70% solution.
• Sneeze and cough into tissues or the crook of your elbow. If you get mucus or spit on your skin, clean it off right away.
• Avoid touching your face with unwashed hands.
• Avoid close contact with people who are sick, especially people exhibiting respiratory symptoms and fever.
• Stay home when you're sick.
• Regularly and thoroughly clean surfaces, such as countertops and doorknobs, with a disinfectant. 
• If you are sick: You should wear a facemask when you are around other people and practice distancing yourself.  
• For healthy people wear a mask only if you are caring for someone who is sick or a person with suspected COVID-19 infection. Facemasks may be in short supply and they should be saved for the caregivers.
• If you choose to wear a facemask make sure it is covering your mouth and nose and leave no gaps between your face and the mask.
