Spreading the virus
Coughs or sneezes from an infected person are the most likely to spread the virus. So it's essential to follow basic hygiene rules:
- Wash your hand often during the day.
- Cover coughs and sneezes with your inner elbow or a napkin.
- Don't touch your eyes, nose, or mouth with your hands.
- Stay inside if you have any of the symptoms and avoid interacting with people that show signs of the infection as well.
