We all need to do our part to keep Oman safe, here are some tips on how to protect yourself as well as your loved ones.
- Wash your hands more often for 20 seconds each time. Make sure to wash your hands with soap or use hand sanitizer when you get to work or when you get home, before you handle food and after you sneeze, cough or blow your nose.
- Maintain social distancing by keeping a distance of 1 meter from people when you are out in public. Only go out when you absolutely have to, and avoid being around crowds of more than 25 people.
- Avoid any physical contact when greeting someone. Do not shake hands.
- Practice respiratory hygiene by coughing or sneezing into your elbow. This means covering your mouth with your elbow when coughing or sneezing. If using a tissue, make sure to dispose the used tissue immediately.
- Stay informed and follow advice given by your healthcare provider. Follow advice given by the Ministry of Health on how to protect yourself and others from COVID-19. They have the most up to date information on local COVID-19 and they are best placed to advise on what people in your area should be doing to protect themselves.
- Seek medical care early if you display COVID-19 symptoms. If you’re displaying symptoms of fever, cough and difficulty breathing seek medical attention and call in advance.
