Health Advice and Information on Best Practices:

Every time a person travels, it is important to pay attention to hygiene. We encourage travelers to follow the security schemes as outlined by the Centers for Disease Control:

  • Wash your hands frequently with an alcohol-based hand rub or soap and water. It is suggested that a 20 second wash is appropriate.

  • Maintain social distancing. Stay at least 6 feet from anyone who is coughing or sneezing.

  • Avoid touching your eyes, nose, and mouth. The virus enters the body through these three areas.

  • Practice respiratory hygiene. Cover your mouth and nose with your elbow or folded tissues when you cough or sneeze. Then throw away the used tissue immediately.

  • If you have a fever, cough, and shortness of breath, seek medical attention.
