People who think they may have been exposed to 2019-nCoV should contact their healthcare provider immediately.
In a press conference held this past Thursday, the Governor of Florida announced that there are currently no confirmed cases of the COVID-19 (Coronavirus) in the state and that Florida remains at low risk.
The Coronavirus is spread mostly through contact from an infected individual and transmitted by coughing and sneezing. Common symptoms include fever,coughing, shortness of breath, and lower and upper respiratory issues. It ismore likely to occur in the elderly and those with underlying health conditions.
We encourage everyone to take the following preventive actions:
● If you are sick, stay home.
● Wash your hands often with soap and warm water for at least 20 seconds.
● Carry and use alcohol-based hand sanitizer.
● Avoid touching your eyes, nose and mouth with unwashed hands.
● Cover your mouth and nose with a tissue when you cough or sneeze.
● Monitor your symptoms.
● Call ahead before visiting your doctor.
If you suspect that you or your family member may have the virus, immediately
contact your health care practitioner or any local hospital.
