As always, people are reminded that they should practice social distancing – standing six feet away from others who may cough or sneeze and release droplets infected COVID-19. Although people who are sick with COVID-19 are the most infectious, it is possible that some people may spread the virus before they start to feel unwell.
It is also possible that a person can get COVID-19 by touching a surface or object that has the virus on it and then touching his or her own mouth, nose, or eyes, but this is not thought to be the main way the virus spreads.
“If you are mildly sick, stay home for at least seven days and until 72 hours after being fever and symptom free,” the Health Department advises. “Call your doctor if you are concerned and/or your symptoms worsen. Individuals who are elderly, have underlying health conditions or pregnant should consider contacting their providers earlier when they are sick.”
