1) Social distancing. This means avoiding public places and events whenever possible. Keep 6 feet away from people. Do not interact with people who have traveled in places with outbreaks (including domestic outbreaks). Remember that someone can be carrying the virus for up to 2 weeks and have no idea they are doing so. Avoid non-essential travel. Make your health decisions not just for yourself but also for the highest-risk population. I bought a month's worth of groceries yesterday and am planning to be a hermit for the next several weeks. Yeah, I'm serious.
