How to Protect Yourself from COVID-19
- Get a COVID-19 vaccine when it’s available to you.
- Wear a mask.
- Stay at least 6 feet from others who don’t live with you.
- Avoid crowds and poorly ventilated spaces.
- Clean your hands often, either with soap and water for 20 seconds or a hand sanitizer that contains at least 60% alcohol.
- Avoid close contact with people who 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 daily.
- Additional guidance from the CDC
What can I do now that I am fully vaccinated?
- You can gather indoors with fully vaccinated people without wearing a mask.
-
You can gather indoors with unvaccinated people from one other household (for example, visiting with relatives who all live together) without masks, unless any of those people or anyone they live with has an increased risk for severe illness from COVID-19.
- If you’ve been around someone who has COVID-19, you do not need to stay away from others or get tested unless you have symptoms.
- Additional guidance from the CDC
