The coronavirus has received much attention in the media over the last several weeks however; the risk to the general public remains low.  The CDC advises that the best way to prevent infection is to avoid being exposed to this virus. General flu activity within the state remains high therefore we recommend Individuals practice routine preventive actions to help prevent the spread of any respiratory viruses.

  • Avoid touching your eyes, nose and mouth.
  • Wash hands often for at least 20 seconds, especially after coughing or sneezing. Use alcoholā€based hand sanitizer if soap and water are not available.
  • Stay home from class and work if you’re sick
  • Adhere to exclusion recommendations:  fever free for 24 hours without fever reducing medication before returning to work or school.
  • Avoid people who are sick.
