Limit physical contact :

It’s hard to do and emotionally frustrating. Restricting communication means talking on the phone instead of physical contact. Talk to people through windows and doors. Stand two meters or six feet away (which means the length of the two arms away) and talk privately with others.

Use masks:

If you serve a sick patient with a coronavirus infection. However use the N95 mask. This will give you much more protection than a surgical mask.

Mask usage rules:

You clean your hands with soap or alcohol-based hand sanitizer and water. Then cover your face and nose with a mask. Remember that no gaps can be left between your face and the mask. Do not touch when you use the mask. If the mask is damp or damaged, use a new mask. Do not touch the mask with your own hands while opening it. Take off the elastic or ribbon attached to the back of the mask. Throw the mask in a trash can. Wash your hands with soap and water.
