More information
This following is a list of precautions from the Alameda County Public Health Department:
- Wash your hands often with soap and water for at least 20 seconds. If soap and water are not available, use an alcohol-based hand sanitizer.
- Avoid touching your eyes, nose, and mouth with unwashed hands.
- Avoid close contact with people who are sick.
- Cover your cough or sneeze with a tissue, then throw the tissue in the trash.
- Clean and disinfect frequently touched objects and surfaces(i.e. key boards, desks, cell phones).
And of course, follow the shelter-in-place requirements, so that we all can protect the vulnerable and keep our healthcare system working.
