Everyone can help prevent the spread of illness in our community with a few simple, but effective actions:
• Stay home if you have a cough, fever, sore throat, or other symptoms of illness
• Practice good personal hygiene: o Wash your hands often with soap and water for at least 20 seconds, especially after you have been in a public place, eating, or drinking. o Cough and sneeze into a tissue or your elbow, then wash your hands.
o Use hand sanitizer if you do not have soap and water readily available.
o Avoid touching your eyes, nose, and mouth with unwashed hands.
• While in public, keep six feet between you and people who don’t live in your home. Avoid gathering with people not in your household. Wear a cloth face covering when physical distance is hard to maintain.
