Gather Knowledge, Not Rumors

• There is currently no vaccine to prevent COVID-19
• The best preventative measure is to avoid exposure
• The virus is thought to spread from person-to-person through close contact and respiratory droplets spread through coughing, sneezing, and talking
• Use credible sources for information such as the CDC, WHO, or State of Michigan websites

Clean Often

• Wash your hands often with soap and water for 20 seconds
• If soap and water are not available, use hand sanitizer that has at least 60% alcohol content
• Avoid touching your face, eyes, nose, and mouth
• Clean and disinfect 'high touch' surfaces such as tables, doorknobs, light switches, countertops, handles, desks, keyboards, toilets, sinks, and electronic devices
• Clean surfaces with soap and water and then disinfect using an EPA-registered household disinfectant

Avoid Close Contact

• Avoid close contact with others
• Practice social distancing
• Stay home, stay safe

Use Face Covers/Masks

• We can spread COVID-19 even if we do not feel sick
• When going out in public, wear a face cover or mask
• Cloth face coverings are meant to protect others if you are infected and not aware of it
• Do NOT use a facemask meant for a healthcare worker - these are in short supply
• Maintain social distancing even with a mask 
• Refer to the CDC guidelines for masks

Cover Coughs and Sneezes

• Cover your mouth and nose with a tissue when you cough or sneeze
• If you do not have a tissue, sneeze into the inside of your elbow
• Throw used tissues in the trash immediately
• Immediately wash your hands with soap and water for 20 seconds, or use a hand sanitizer that contains at least 60% alcohol
