How to keep my kids in college safe during the sars-cov-2 pandemic?

Hygiene: since we cannot be there to remind them to wash hands and stay distanced, we need to trust that they have learned this for themselves. Keeping their dorm room/apartment clean, frequent hand washing, observing social distance rules and taking care of themselves (enough sleep/nutritious food/exercise) are the best ways to prevent getting sick.

Open Colleges?: My children were sent home from their colleges due to the pandemic. I thought most colleges closed or engaged in distance learning? Wash hands often with warm water & soap for at least 20 seconds. Avoid touching eyes, nose or mouth unless hands have just been washed. Use a face covering or mask when in public. Practice social distancing – stay at least 6 feet from others (outside of family).
