Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) is a new disease that causes respiratory illness in people and can spread from person to person. This virus was first identified during an investigation into an outbreak in Wuhan, China. COVID-19 is not the same as the typical coronaviruses that commonly circulate and cause a mild, common cold.

How To Prepare

There is currently no vaccine for COVID-19. The best way to avoid being exposed is to take the same preventative measure you would for any other respiratory disease, such as the flu. Take the following steps:

• Avoid close contact with people who are sick.

• Avoid touching your eyes, nose, and mouth.

• Stay home when you 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 using a regular household cleaning spray or wipe.

• Observe regular handwashing guidelines.

• Follow CDC recommendations for using a facemask.

Who is Most at Risk?

Early information out of China, where COVID-19 first started, shows that some people are at higher risk of getting very sick from this illness. This includes:

• Older adults

• People who have serious chronic medical conditions like:

  • Heart disease

  • Diabetes

  • Lung disease

If you are at higher risk of developing complications from COVID-19, you should:

• Stock up on supplies such as prescription medications and necessary medical devices.

• Take everyday precautions to keep space between yourself and others.

• When you go out in public, keep away from others who are sick, limit close contact and wash your hands often.

• Avoid crowds as much as possible.

• Avoid cruise travel and non-essential air travel.

• During a COVID-19 outbreak in your community, stay home as much as possible to further reduce your risk of being exposed.
