Protect Yourself and Others

There are steps that everyone can take daily to reduce the risk of getting sick or infecting others with COVID-19:

• Practice social distancing in compliance with health officer orders. Whenever you are out, keep six feet apart from everyone else as much as possible.
• If you are an essential worker, stay home when you are sick.
• Wash your hands with soap and water for at least 20 seconds.
• If soap and water are not readily available, use a hand sanitizer with at least 60% alcohol. 
• Avoid touching your eyes, nose, and mouth with unwashed hands.
• Clean and disinfect frequently touched objects and surfaces using a regular household cleaning product.
• Cover your cough or sneeze with a tissue, then throw the tissue in the trash. If you do not have a tissue, use your elbow (not your hands).
• Wear a cloth face covering whenever you are outside of your home and around others.
