Do your part to help stop the spread of COVID-19 As the number of COVID-19 cases increase rapidly across the state, we want make sure you’re equipped with the tools to help stop the spread of coronavirus.
Here’s a list of mitigation and preventative measures provided by state health officials:
- Practice social distancing - cancel or postpone large gatherings, conferences and sporting events (e.g. events with over 100 people). Events over 250 people are now prohibited per the governor’s executive order.
- Regularly clean and disinfect frequently touched surfaces, such as doorknobs, keyboards, cell phones and light switches.
- Communicate and reinforce best practices for washing hands and covering coughs and sneezes. Wash your hands often with soap and warm water for 20 seconds. If not available, use hand sanitizer. Cover your mouth and nose with a tissue or upper sleeve when coughing or sneezing.
- Stay home when you are sick and consider staying home to avoid others who are sick if you are an individual who is at risk of severe illness.
- Limit non-essential work travel.
