Points to remember

* The best masks will not stop COVID-19. Masks need to be combined with social distancing ( at least 6ft ) to work
* Masks will help you not unknowingly spread COVID-19 to others
* COVID-19 can not penetrate your skin
* COVID-19 gets into your system when you touch your mouth, nostrils, eyes, or ears. You can also breath it in if an infected person coughs, sneezes, or gets close enough to you.
* Ordinary, non-bacterial soap kills COVID-19 the best.
* Washing your hands kills COVID-19 and gets it off your hands before you can infect yourself by touching your face.
* You can make a disinfectant for your hard surfaces by combining a quart of water and 3 teaspoons of bleach in a spray bottle.
