The Cerro Gordo County Department of Public Health urges you to do all you can to prevent the spread of germs: ➠ Cover your mouth and nose with a tissue when you sneeze or cough – or cough into your sleeve. ➠ Put the tissue in the trash — then wash your hands. ➠ Wash your hands often with warm soapy water for at least 20 seconds — that’s about how long it takes to sing the Happy Birthday song twice. ➠ Avoid contact with sick people and stay home when you’re sick. ➠ Avoid touching your eyes, mouth and nose. ➠ Get plenty of sleep.
