Since life is beginning to return to a new normal, we wanted to share a little graphic to help keep you safe from Coronavirus. This graphic highlights the ways one can prevent catching and prevent spreading Coronavirus.
Coronavirus is thought to spread mainly from person-to-person contact. This means that the virus spreads between people who are in close contact to one another (within 6ft), through respiratory droplets that are produced when an infected person coughs, sneezes, or talks, and the virus can spread even when the carrier is asymptomatic. The number one way to prevent spreading the virus is to not catch it. However, this is rather difficult when an infected person may not show symptoms usually 2-14 days after exposure. Be on the lookout if symptoms develop. The main symptoms of Coronavirus include a fever over 101°F, dry cough, shortness or breath, fatigue, muscle or body aches, headache, new loss of taste or smell, sore throat, congestion or runny nose, nausea or vomiting, or diarrhea.
Please wash your hands for at least 20 seconds, wear a cloth mask when in public to contain your personal droplets, cover your coughs and sneezes, and keep practicing social distancing!
