What to do if you are sick

The following recommendations from the CDC highlight the precautions you can take to minimize coronavirus spread. Contact your healthcare provider for additional steps you may need to take. Older adults and those with medical conditions such as heart disease, type 2 diabetes, obesity, cancer, and those who smoke are considered at a higher risk for developing severe illness.

WEAR A MASK

• Wear masks with two or more layers to stop the spread of COVID-19.
• Wear the mask over your nose and mouth and secure it under your chin.
• Masks should be worn by people two years and older.
• Masks should NOT be worn by children younger than two, people who have trouble breathing, or people who cannot remove the mask without assistance.
• Wear masks in public settings, at events and gatherings, and anywhere you will be around other people.

PRACTICE PHYSICAL DISTANCING

• Keep a distance of at least 6 feet between yourself and others who do not live in your household.
• Avoid close contact with people who are sick.

CLEAN YOUR HANDS OFTEN

• Wash your hands often with soap and water for at least 20 seconds especially after you have been in a public place, or after blowing your nose, coughing, or sneezing.
• If soap and water are not readily available, use a hand sanitizer that contains at least 60% alcohol. Cover all surfaces of your hands and rub them together until they feel dry.
• Avoid touching your eyes, nose, and mouth with unwashed hands.
• Extra caution with social gatherings, crowds, and travel.

Certain factors can make public activities more or less risky, such as local infection rates, duration of the activity, whether those around you wear masks and practice safe hand-hygiene and physical distancing, if indoors or outdoors, and your current health/risk factors.

Review the Maine CDC website for current infection rates in Maine, along with up-to-date restrictions and recommendations on travel and other activities.

STAY HOME IF YOU’RE SICK

Stay home if you are sick, except to get medical care. Learn what to do if you are sick and contact your health care provider via phone before visiting the office.

COVER COUGHS & SNEEZES

Cover your mouth and nose with a tissue when you cough or sneeze or use the inside of your elbow.

THROW USED TISSUES IN THE TRASH

Immediately wash your hands with soap and water for at least 20 seconds. If soap and water are not readily available, clean your hands with a hand sanitizer that contains at least 60% alcohol.

PREPARING FOR HEALTHCARE NEEDS

Be sure you have over-the-counter medicines and medical supplies (like tissues) to treat fever and other symptoms. Most people will be able to recover from the coronavirus at home. The CDC recommends getting a 90-day supply of your medications when able.

Have enough household items and groceries on hand so that you’ll be prepared to stay at home for a period of time. If you have pets, be sure to have enough supplies on hand for them as well.
