How can we protect ourselves and others from COVID-19?

Maintaining a good personal hygiene and keeping a distance between you and other people can significantly reduce the risk of contracting COVID-19. The most important steps are:

• Frequent cleaning of hands using alcohol-based hand rub or soap and water.

• Maintaining a physical distancing of at least 1.5-meters from others, especially in enclosed spaces.

• Covering your mouth and nose with a face mask.

• Avoiding close contact with people showing symptoms of a COVID-19 infection, also if an infection has not been confirmed.
