I have autoimmune disease, diabetes, and work in a gas station, so what can i do about coronavirus prevention?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Use precautions : It depends on the type of autoimmune disease you have, whether you are on steroids or immune suppressive medications and how well controlled your diabetes is. It is advisable to avoid working in a gas station but if you must, wear an N95 mask. Follow CDC guidelines. Improve ventilation around your work site. Make sure all customers wear masks. Try to place a plexiglass barrier
