Dr. Deitchman: Because COVID-19 is a new disease, we’re still learning how it spreads. Right now, we think the virus that causes COVID-19 mainly spreads from person to person. When an infected person coughs or sneezes, they produce tiny droplets containing the virus. These droplets can spread through the air and infect people who are within about 6 feet distance.

Those nearby people can possibly inhale droplets into their lungs, or the droplets can land in their mouths or noses. It’s also possible that people can pick up the virus by touching a surface or object that has the virus on it, and then touching their own mouth, nose, or possibly their eyes. This is why we tell people to wash their hands frequently and avoid touching their face.

Dr. Deitchman: For information about what’s going on in your community and any local guidance, look to your state and local health departments. For business-specific guidance, updates on the spread of COVID-19, and to keep up with what we are learning about the new coronavirus and COVID-19, there’s a wealth of information on the web sites of both the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the World Health Organization. CDC has more information on the situation in the United States, while WHO has a more international focus.

The Occupational Safety and Health Administration has guidance, too, and they explain how protecting workers against COVID-19 relates to certain OSHA requirements.
