Now that many of our places of work and businesses are reopening, the experts at Laniado’s Infectious Disease Department wanted to share some ways to protect yourself.
There are some basic precautions you can take, which are the same as what you should be doing every day to stave off other respiratory diseases. You’ve seen the guidance before: Wash your hands regularly. Cover your nose and mouth when you sneeze. And when you’re sick, stay home from work or school and drink lots of fluids.
The CDC recommends washing with soap and water for at least 20 seconds after using the bathroom, before eating and after blowing your nose or sneezing. It also advises not to touch your eyes, nose, and mouth and to clean objects and surfaces you touch often.
Laniado Hospital needs to purchase equipment to help protect our staff, to treat and heal our patients and ensure everyone’s safety. Please donate today and help us.
