How to Avoid the Coronavirus

  1. To help protect yourself and others from COVID-19:
    • Get vaccinated and stay up to date on your COVID-19 vaccines.
    • Everyone ages 2 years and older should properly wear a well-fitting mask indoors in public in areas where the COVID-19 Community Level is high, regardless of vaccination status.
    • Avoid poorly ventilated spaces and crowds.
    • Test to prevent spread to others.
    • Wash your hands often. If soap and water are not readily available, use a hand sanitizer that contains at least 60% alcohol.
    • Cover coughs and sneezes.
    • Clean high touch surfaces regularly or as needed and after you have visitors in your home. If someone is sick or has tested positive for COVID-19, disinfect frequently touched surfaces.
    • Monitor your health daily.
  2. Self care: If you have possible or confirmed COVID-19:
    • Stay home except to get medical care.
    • Monitor your symptoms.
    • Get tested as soon as possible after your symptoms start.
    • Get rest and stay hydrated. Take over-the-counter medicines, such as acetaminophen, to help you feel better.
    • Call ahead before visiting your doctor.
    • If you are sick, wear a well-fitting mask.
