Looking After Your Physical Health


To reduce the risk of exposure to COVID-19, BC’s Provincial Health Officer recommends the following:
  • Wash your hands frequently for at least 20 seconds using soap and water.
  • If a sink is not available, alcohol-based hand rubs can be used to clean hands if they are not visibly soiled. If they are visibly soiled using a wipe and then alcohol-based hand rubs are effective.
  • Do not touch your face/eyes/mouth with unwashed hands.
  • Cover your mouth and nose when you sneeze or cough with a disposable tissue or the crease of your elbow.
  • Regularly clean and disinfect frequently touched surfaces. Regular household cleaning products are effective against most viruses.
  • Stay home if you are sick and away from others so you don’t pass it on.
  • Be mindful of physical and social distancing – keeping about two metres (six feet) from each other to reduce the risk of spreading COVID-19 and making one another sick.Ìý
