• Wear a well-fitting mask over your nose and mouth if you are in public indoor settings if you are not fully vaccinated.
• Remember, outdoors is safer than indoors.
• Avoid crowded, poorly ventilated spaces.
• Avoid shouting and singing, especially in indoor spaces.
• If you are sick or have symptoms, don't host or attend a gathering.
• Also consider getting a COVID-19 test 3 to 5 days after you return home from travel.
• Even if your test is negative, it's wise to reduce non-essential activities for a full 7 days after travel.
