As with any virus, the Coronavirus spreads when an infected person coughs or sneezes, and any respiratory droplets come in contact with another person.  Keeping a good distance from infected persons will help keep you safe from contracting the disease.

The following measures will help keep your environment safe:

• Use a separate room and bathroom for sick household members if possible.
• Disinfect household items regularly, paying particular attention to those that are touched often.
• Wash hands frequently for at least 20 seconds, making sure to lather the back of your hands, between your fingers, and under your nails, or use an alcohol-based hand sanitizer with at least 60% alcohol.

To clean up mold, scrub a mixture of household detergent and water on the surface (don’t use bleach).

Mold-sensitive individuals may exhibit allergy symptoms, such as sneezing, runny or stuffy nose, coughing, itchy eyes, wheezing, and skin irritation.
