COVID-19 is a new respiratory disease not previously seen in humans. The virus can be easily spread from person-to-person through close contact of about 6 feet or through respiratory droplets released when an infected person coughs or sneezes. These droplets can land in the mouths or noses of those who are nearby or inhaled. Currently, there is no vaccine to prevent COVID-19. To avoid exposure to the virus, wash your hands with soap and water for at least 20 seconds, clean and disinfect frequently touched areas, stay home if you are sick except to get medical care, and practice social distancing.
