Recommendations of the Secretariat of Health to the COVID - 19

If you have been in contact with someone who has COVID-19, follow these steps:

• Telephone your health care provider or a COVID-19 hotline to find out where and when you can get tested.

• Cooperate in screening procedures to stop the spread of the virus.

• If testing is not possible, stay home and isolate yourself for 14 days.

• During the quarantine period, do not go to work, school or public places. If you need anything from outside, ask someone to bring it to you.

• Keep a distance of at least 1 meter from other people, including family members.

• Wear a mask so as not to infect others. You should also wear it if you need to go to a medical center.

• Wash your hands frequently.

• Stay in a room away from other family members and, if this is not possible, wear a mask.

• Keep the room well ventilated.

• If you share a bedroom with other people, there should be a separation of at least 1 meter between beds.

• Monitor your symptoms for 14 days.

• Telephone your health care provider immediately if you have any dangerous symptoms, such as difficulty breathing, loss of mobility or speech, confusion, or chest pain.

• Keep a positive attitude. You can do this by communicating with your loved ones over the phone or Internet, or by exercising at home.
