Wash Your Hands

Sneeze or Cough Into Your Elbow
Extra Precautions for People Who Are at Higher RisK
Vaccines
Even if you don't show symptoms, you could carry the COVID-19 virus. People more than 2 years old should wear a cloth face mask in public.
Soap, water, and some scrubbing are all it takes to kill viruses on your hands.
Your eyes, nose, and mouth are a direct path into your body for viruses. Scratch your nose, rub your eyes, or bite a hangnail, and you let germs inside.
The main way COVID-19 spreads is from person-to-person contact. “Contact” is more than touching.
If you start to have mild symptoms like a runny nose and headache, stay home until you feel better
Your symptoms could mean you have the infection and could spread it to others.
Stay At Home
The fewer people you’re around, the lower your chance of infection. When you stay home, you help stop the spread to others, too.
If you sneeze or cough into your hands, you coat them with germs. If you don't cover your sneezes and coughs at all, it rockets your germs into the air around you toward others.
Anyone can get COVID-19. But you have a higher chance of getting seriously ill from it
The vaccines have proven very effective in stopping the spread of COVID-19 and have proven to also be effective against the variants that are now spreading. Still, not everyone is choosing to be vaccinated.
