Why Are Social Distancing, Quarantine, And Isolation Important?
Person to person — that’s how the novel coronavirus spreads. It does so easily and sustainably through tiny droplets in the air that can land in your nose or mouth — or even be inhaled into your lungs. Currently, there is no vaccine to prevent COVID-19, so the best way to protect yourself is by avoiding exposure entirely through social distancing, quarantine, or isolation.
