Back to Basics
With California having reopened and a strong desire to get “back to normal” this summer, it is easy to fall out of practice with techniques proven to help prevent coronavirus transmission. Now that Marin has aligned with the state and restrictions in our community have loosened, these fundamental strategies remain essential for keeping ourselves and those around us safe, especially as cases continue to rise. Utilize these strategies from our COVID-19 prevention toolkit to keep our community safe:
- Get vaccinated
Vaccination remains our most important tool to prevent COVID-19. - Wear a mask according to state & local guidance
While not required in all settings if you are vaccinated, this is still a top tool in our prevention toolkit. For current information about masking guidelines visit the state website. - Practice good hand hygiene
Wash your hands frequently and for at least 20 seconds. - Clean & disinfect
Clean high-touch surfaces daily. - Cover coughs & sneezes
Its courteous and helps prevent the spread of disease. - Avoid close contact with those outside your household, especially crowds & poorly ventilated spaces.
- Monitor for symptoms
If you experience COVID-like symptoms or have been identified as a close contact of someone who is COVID-19 positive, get tested. - Quarantine if you are unvaccinated and have been in close contact with someone who is COVID-19 positive.
- Isolate according to CDC guidelines if you test positive for COVID-19 to stop the spread.
