Reduce Your Risk and Monitor Your Health

• Practice good hand washing—20 seconds with soap and water or alcohol-based sanitizer.
• Do not shake hands or hug.
• Cough into your elbow or into a tissue and discard.
• Frequently clean high touch surfaces in your home and work place (such as door knobs, countertops, remotes, etc.).
• Avoid touching railings, door knobs, faucets, etc. in public areas. Use your sleeve or tissue if necessary.
• Avoid close contact, keep 6 feet between you and others.
• Limit travel to essentials—groceries, pharmacy, medical care—and abide by state requirements.
• Minimize contact with others who may be ill or carrying COVID-19, including those in your household.
• Monitor your health at home and watch for these symptoms. Take your temperature with a thermometer two times a day and monitor for fever (99.9°F/37.8°C or higher). Watch for cough or trouble breathing.
• Stay home if you are ill.
