• washing your hands frequently
• coughing and sneezing into the bend of your arm, not into your hand
• avoiding touching your nose, mouth or eyes with your hands
• cleaning and disinfecting objects and surfaces that a lot of people touch, such as:
  • doorknobs
  • phones
  • television remotes
• eating healthy foods and doing physical activities to keep your immune system strong
• getting plenty of rest or sleep

If you do get sick, stay home and avoid contact with other people until your symptoms are gone. This will help prevent the spread of the virus.

If you plan to travel, consult a health care provider or travel health clinic at least 6 weeks before leaving.
