In the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, many people are looking for ways to protect themselves from the disease. While the best way to avoid infection is to avoid exposure to the virus, there are some things you can do to help lower your risk. Here are some tips from the pros on how to protect yourself from Covid-19.

How to Protect Yourself from Covid-19

The best way to protect yourself from Covid-19 is to take some simple precautions. Wash your hands often and well, avoid close contact with people who are sick, and stay home if you are feeling sick yourself. If you do develop symptoms, see a doctor right away.

• Cover your nose and mouth when you sneeze and cough.

When you sneeze, it is important to cover your nose and mouth with a tissue or your arm to prevent the spread of germs. Coughing into your arm is also a good way to prevent the spread of germs.

• Wash your hands often.

One of the most important ways to stay healthy is to wash your hands often. You should wash your hands before you eat, after you go to the bathroom, and after you sneeze or cough. You can use soap and water, or you can use an alcohol-based hand sanitizer.

• Avoid close contact with people who are sick.

The best way to avoid getting sick is to avoid close contact with people who are already sick. If you must come into contact with someone who is ill, be sure to wash your hands regularly and avoid touching your face. If you do start to feel sick, be sure to stay home and rest. Drink plenty of fluids and take ibuprofen if you have a fever.

• Stay home if you are sick.

I cannot stress enough how important it is to stay home if you are sick. Coming into work and infecting everyone else will just make things worse for everyone. Not only will you be putting your own health at risk, but you will also be putting the health of your coworkers at risk. Stay home and rest up until you are feeling better. You will be glad you did.

• Don’t touch your eyes, nose, or mouth.

If you are like most people, you have probably heard the advice, “Don’t touch your eyes, nose, or mouth.” But do you know why?

It is important to avoid touching your eyes, nose, and mouth because you can easily spread germs and viruses to these areas. The eyes, nose, and mouth are all very susceptible to infection, and by touching them, you can easily introduce bacteria, viruses, or other contaminants into your body.

In addition, you should avoid touching your face in general, as this can also lead to the spread of germs and viruses. So, next time someone tells you to “keep your hands off your face,” listen to them!
