yourself from the coronavirus in the same way as with other
respiratory infectious agents. This is primarily through a good level of
hand hygiene.

- Preferably use a paper towel to dry your hands.
- In case you don’t have an opportunity to wash hands, use hand sanitizer.
- Do not touch your face unless your hands are clean.
- Cover your mouth and nose with a disposable tissue when you cough or sneeze. Dispose of the tissue immediately after use.
- If you do not have a tissue, cough and sneeze into the upper part of your sleeve. Do not use your hands!
