What should I do?

Take simple steps to prevent respiratory illness and its spread.

Avoid contact with people who have respiratory illness.

​

Stay home when you are ill.
Isolating yourself while you are ill can help prevent the spread of COVID-19 and more common illnesses, like influenza.

 

Practice social distancing (stay 6 feet from others) to prevent the likelihood you will come in contact with someone who is ill.

​

Wash your hands.
Use soap and water for at least 20 seconds. If soap and water are not available, use an alcohol-based hand sanitizer with at least 60% alcohol.

​

Regularly clean and disinfect commonly touched surfaces such as counters, tabletops, doorknobs, bathroom fixtures, phones, toilets, etc. with a diluted bleach solution or use a cleaner with a label that claims it can kill human coronaviruses. Make sure to follow the instructions on the label.

To create a bleach solution, use 1 tablespoon bleach to 4 cups of water. Make fresh daily.

Commercially available cleaning products:

Novel Coronavirus (COVID-19)—Fighting Products

EPA-registered surface disinfectant products that kill the coronavirus that causes COVID-19

​

Avoid touching your eyes, nose and mouth with unwashed hands.

​

Cover your cough or sneeze with a tissue then throw the tissue in the trash.
Use your elbow or arm if tissues are not available.

​

Wear a face covering when you are in public to avoid infecting others.
In light of new data about how COVID-19 spreads, along with evidence of widespread COVID-19 illness in communities across the country, CDC recommends that people wear a cloth face covering to cover their nose and mouth in the community. This is to protect people around you if you are infected but do not have symptoms.

​

​

Wear a face covering when you are ill or caring for someone who is ill.
Remove your mask and gloves carefully and immediately wash your hands.

​

Follow travel related recommendations and restrictions.
You can get updated travel restrictions at www.cdc.gov/travel/notices.

​

If you live in or traveled to an area of the world with ongoing COVID-19 transmission or have been in contact with an individual with COVID-19, and develop a fever, shortness of breath and a cough, please contact your medical provider for instructions. 

​

If you are sick and have tested positive for COVID-19 infection, or suspect you have COVID-19 infection, you should follow Georgia Department of Public Health home isolation instructions. This helps prevent the disease from spreading to others in your household and community.
