Overview of COVID – 19
COVID-19 is a unique virus that has been compared to influenza (the flu), however, there are a number of differences that have led to necessary action in order to help prevent the spread.
The CDC has said that the best way to avoid contracting the virus is to avoid being exposed. This may sound overly simple, but here is a more detailed look at what avoiding the virus and preventing the spread looks like:

- Avoid touching your face, nose, eyes, etc
- Avoid all non-essential travel
- Stay home except to get medical care
