COVER YOUR COUGHS AND SNEEZES

• Use a scarf, mask, tissue or handkerchief
• Use your sleeve

KEEP A SAFE DISTANCE AND AVOID CROWDS IF POSSIBLE

• Stay 1.5 metres away when talking to people
• Do not shake hands or kiss people as a greeting

PROVIDE CARE FOR AND SEPARATING FAMILY MEMBERS WHO ARE SICK

• Family members who are sick should be moved into one room or corner of the house, or outside if the weather allows
• Use only one caregiver, preferably a family member not at high risk. This action helps to limit the spread of the illness within the family
• The caregiver must use safety measures such as using a mask when available if they are closer than 1 metre to the person who is sick, ventilate the room and house and other family members should monitor themselves daily for fever and cough
• Give people who are sick enough fluids such as water, juice, soup, etc. or breast milk for infants and give nutritious food
• Young children, pregnant women and people who have another disease can be at more risk. They should therefore seek medical care if they get sick

GET RID OF EXPOSED MATERIALS SAFELY

• Make sure you throw out used masks or tissues properly by placing them in a bag and sealing it.
