Preventing Spread of COVID-19 

 COVID-19 is a virus and is thought to spread mainly from person-to-person.

• Between people who are in close contact with each other, which means being within 6 feet of others for at least 15 minutes.

• Through respiratory droplets produced when someone infected with COVID-19 coughs, sneezes or talks. These droplets can land in the mouths or noses of people who are nearby or possibly can be inhaled.
  

• COVID-19 may be spread by people who are not currently showing symptoms.
  

Symptoms of COVID-19 may appear 2-14 days after exposure to the virus. Some people infected with COVID-19 have mild sypmtoms or do not show symptoms.

• If you are experiencing symptoms of COVID-19, we encourage you to talk to your health care provider about being tested.
  

You can take steps to prevent the spread of COVID-19 by doing the following things:

• Stay home if you are sick
  

• Get tested if you have symptoms of COVID-19
  

• Wash your hands with soap and water, often.
  

• Avoid touching your eyes, nose, and mouth.
  

• Cover your mouth/nose with a tissue or sleeve when coughing or sneezing
