Que hacer para protegernos del Covid-19. & City Council J & G Cultura.

Entrevista con Poririo Villareal de el Departamento de Salud de Houston.

No nos olvidemos de lo que es más importante durante estos tiempos de pandemia, protegernos y proteger a los que más queremos. "Dia de la Independencia del Corona Virus" https://www.tonydiaz.net/blog/dia-de-la-independencia-del-corona-virus?fbclid=IwAR3T1IxEuWrWxclHljN-2Bk4SWEf93Yp_qzME-BzuFMcOnzHDYI5O7-NK14

No nos olvidemos de lo que es más importante durante estos tiempos de pandemia, protegernos y proteger a los que más queremos. Las medidas de prevención deben seguirse diariamente, aunque cueste, y aprovecho de recordarles que hacer para protegernos del Covid-19:

• Minimice el contacto con otras personas y evite salir de casa, excepto para las necesidades esenciales, tanto como sea posible. Para aquellos que trabajan en ocupaciones esenciales y deben salir de su hogar, la solución es hacer lo siguiente de manera consistente y de manera simultánea:

• Usar una mascarilla o una cubierta de tela cuando esté en público. Su mascarilla ayuda a proteger a las personas a su alrededor y la mascarilla de ellos le ayuda a protegerse a usted.

• Distanciamiento social manteniéndose al menos a seis pies de distancia de otras personas.

• Lavarse las manos con frecuencia con agua. Si no puede lavarse las manos, use desinfectante de manos.

Hágase la prueba. Es GRATIS, seguro, confidencial y no necesita seguro ni prueba de ciudadanía. Visite houstonemergency.org o llame al 832-393-4220 para obtener información sobre cómo hacerse la prueba y para programar una cita en una de las ubicaciones en la ciudad.
