The best way to prevent COVID-19 is to avoid being exposed to the virus. Take the following steps to minimize your risk:

• Stay home as much as possible.

• Wash hands frequently with soap and water for at least 20 seconds. If soap and water is not available, use hand sanitizer with at least 60% alcohol.

• Avoid touching your eyes, nose, and mouth.

• Distance yourself from others when in public, especially if you are a senior or have a medical condition that puts you in a high-risk category.

• Cover your mouth and nose with a cloth mask when in public. Learn more about children and masks.

• Cover coughs and sneezes with an elbow or tissue. Throw the used tissue away and immediately wash your hands.

• Clean and disinfect frequently touched surfaces daily -- including phones, keyboards, doorknobs, handles and light switches – with an EPA-registered disinfectant.
