Disinfect your house
It is important to disinfect your house as soon as possible and as often as possible, but as I mentioned before, you should use chlorine or alcohol based products. Furthermore, doctors recommend you stay away from sick people and do not touch their used tissues or mucus.
“Hard common surfaces in the home, everything from counters to TV remotes, are the target for immediate disinfecting. If you are not sure what to wipe, pay attention to the things you are touching in the household and put a sticky note on it to remind yourself where to clean,” said Gershon.
Given the fact that the virus can also spread among animals, it is advisable to avoid contact with pets if you are suspected of coronavirus, because the virus can be transmitted to other individuals through animals.
“I have read that people who are potentially infected with COVID-19 shouldn’t handle family pets. There is concern it might spread to them and thereby spread to others in the household that way,” said Gershon.
