Clean surfaces and don’t touch your eyes

While the CDC states that infection from surface contamination is less common than through infected droplets getting into your mouth and nose, it does still happen. So if you share a space with others such as in a house with roommates or an office, clean surfaces regularly. Be sure to buy actual disinfectant products that kill germs. Go over highly used areas often like refrigerator doors, door handles, sink knobs, remote controls, and landline telephones. Consider wearing gloves when you go grocery shopping or need to touch potentially non-sanitized surfaces in public places. Keep disinfectant wipes on you when you must use public devices like computers or ATMs.
