The B.C. Centre for Disease Control (BCCDC) has more information about the coronavirus on its website: http://www.bccdc.ca/about/news-stories/stories/2020/information-on-novel-coronavirus
The BCCDC’s recommendations to reduce the risk of exposure are the same as fighting colds and flu: • Frequent hand washing (it is the single most effective way of reducing infection spread) • Practicing other good hygiene habits (avoiding touching face/eyes/mouth with hands, and covering one’s mouth and nose when sneezing or coughing, ideally with a disposable tissue or the crease of the elbow) • Cleaning and disinfecting frequently touched workspace surfaces • Maintaining good general health (balanced diet, getting adequate sleep, exercising in moderation) • Staying home when sick Anyone who is concerned about their personal health situation should contact their primary-care provider, local public health office or call HealthLink BC at 8-1-1.
