Wear a mask
- Wear a mask with two or more layers to stop the spread of COVID-19 to protect yourself and others.
- Wear your mask over your nose and mouth, secure it under your chin, and make sure it fits snugly against the sides of your face.
- In cold weather, wear your mask under your scarf, ski mask, or balaclava.
- Keep a spare mask in case your mask becomes wet from moisture in your breath or from snow or rain.
- You are more likely to get or spread COVID-19 when you are in close contact with people who don’t live with you.
- Remember that people without symptoms or with a recent negative test result can still spread COVID-19 to others.
- Choose safer outdoor venues if possible.
- Choose venues that limit seating and allow for social distancing and select your seat or place to stand based on your ability to stay at least 6 feet from others.
- Arrive to the event early or at off-peak times to avoid crowding and congested areas.
- Avoid using restroom facilities or concession areas at high traffic times, such as intermission, half-time, or immediately after the event.
- As much as possible, avoid crowds and indoor spaces that do not offer fresh air from the outdoors.
- You are less likely to get or spread COVID-19 during outdoor activities. Look for seating options that are outside or have proper ventilation with outdoor air, such as tents that have open doors or rolled up sides.
- Wash hands often with soap and water for at least 20 seconds, after blowing your nose, coughing, or sneezing and before eating.
- If soap and water are not readily available, use a hand sanitizer that contains at least 60% alcohol. Bring extra hand sanitizer with you.
- Avoid touching your mask, eyes, nose, and mouth.
- Authorized COVID-19 vaccines can help protect you from COVID-19.
- You should get a COVID-19 vaccine as soon as possible.
- Once you are fully vaccinated, you may be able to start doing some things that you had stopped doing because of the pandemic.
