MASK RECOMMENDATIONS AS OF APRIL 3, 2020.
Cobb & Douglas Public Health agrees with the CDC and also recommends wearing cloth face coverings in public where social distancing may be difficult to maintain (e.g., grocery stores and pharmacies). The use of simple cloth face coverings may help people who may have the virus and do not know it from transmitting it to others. These cloth face coverings (made from household items like T-shirts, bandanas, etc.) can be used as an additional public health measure.
However, we still want to emphasize that sheltering in place, maintaining social distancing and frequent hand washing are our most important tools to slowing the spread of COVID-19.
It is important to note that the cloth face coverings recommended by the CDC and CDPH are NOT surgical masks or N-95 respirators. Those MUST continue to be reserved for healthcare workers and first responders, as recommended by current CDC guidance.
ADVICE TO SLOW COMMUNITY SPREAD
- Stay home and go out only for essentials like food and medical care.
- Avoid close contact with people who are sick.
- Wear a cloth mask and maintain 6-feet social distancing when out in public.
- Wash your hands often with soap and water for at least 20 seconds, especially after blowing your nose, coughing or sneezing; going to the bathroom; and before eating or preparing food.
- If soap and water are not readily available, use an alcohol-based hand sanitizer with at least 60% alcohol. Always wash hands with soap and water if hands are visibly dirty.
- Avoid touching your eyes, nose, and mouth with unwashed hands.
- Cover your cough or sneeze with a tissue, then throw the tissue in the trash.
- Clean and disinfect frequently touched objects and surfaces using a regular household cleaning spray or wipe.
