Routine practices: The best way to avoid a respiratory illness like COVID-19 is to wash your hands often and keep your distance from anyone with symptoms. Studies show an average adult touches their face/mouth 6X/hr and that touch can allow any contaminant on their fingers to eventually enter their mouth/nose. The mechanical effort of hand washing for 20 secs can remove those contaminants.
