Recommended Precautions

While thorough cleaning & disinfecting is a critical component of managing the spread of COVID-19, the best way to prevent illness is to avoid being exposed to this virus. However, as a reminder, CDC always recommends everyday preventive actions to help prevent the spread of respiratory diseases, including:

• Avoid close contact with people who are sick.
• Avoid touching your eyes, nose, and mouth.
• Stay home when you are sick.
• Cover your cough or sneeze with a tissue, then throw the tissue in the trash.
• Clean and disinfect frequently touched objects and surfaces using a regular household cleaning spray or wipe.
• Follow CDC’s recommendations for using a facemask.
• Wash your hands often with soap and water for at least 20 seconds, especially after going to the bathroom; before eating; and after blowing your nose, coughing, or sneezing.
• If soap and water are not readily available, use an alcohol-based hand sanitizer with at least 60% alcohol. Always wash hands with soap and water if hands are visibly dirty.

Additional Information

Sars-Cov-2/COVID-19. SARS-CoV-2 is a coronavirus that causes COVID-19, an illness which is primarily spread from person to person. COVID-19 symptoms can range from mild (or no symptoms) to severe illness. A person can become infected in different ways, such as coming into close contact (about 6 feet or two arm lengths) with a person who has COVID-19, from respiratory droplets when an infected person coughs, sneezes, or talks, or by touching a surface or object that has the virus on it, followed by touching one’s mouth, nose, or eyes. It is unknown how long the air inside a room occupied by someone with confirmed COVID-19 remains potentially infectious, influencing factors such as the size of the room and the ventilation system design (including flowrate (air changes per hour) and location of supply and exhaust vents.))

Cleaning refers to the removal of germs, dirt, and impurities from surfaces. It does not kill germs, but by removing them, it lowers their numbers and the risk of spreading infection.

Disinfecting refers to using chemicals, for example, EPA-registered disinfectants, to kill germs on surfaces. This process does not necessarily clean dirty surfaces or remove germs, but by killing germs on a surface after cleaning, it can further lower the risk of spreading infection.
